131 Spring Street, Manhattan, NY 10012
The 6-story, 8-unit building at 131 Spring Street in SoHo, owned by Anthony Vulaj and constructed in 1893, has experienced several notable incidents and ongoing compliance issues over recent years. Most significantly, in June 2021, the building faced multiple simultaneous emergencies involving the fire escape, water supply, and power outage, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations.
The building has a recurring pattern of violations related to bedbug reporting requirements under the Housing Maintenance Code (HMC), with open violations recorded in 2024 and 2023, following similar issues in previous years. In late 2021, an Environmental Control Board violation was issued regarding exterior maintenance including windows and columns. The property has demonstrated regular rodent inspection compliance since 2019, with the most recent inspections in 2023 showing "Passed" results, though there was noted rat activity in July 2023.
The building's Maintenance and Safety history includes multiple tenant safety inspections, all of which were resolved without violations. Between 2019 and 2023, there were several issues related to the Building's Mandatory Benchmarking Reporting requirements, with fines imposed in 2021, 2022, and early 2023, though these were subsequently dismissed upon confirmation of submission. The building's permit history shows consistent maintenance and improvement activities, with the most recent permit issued in October 2024 for exterior work.
