431 West Broadway, Manhattan, NY 10012

The 5-story, 4-unit mixed residential/artists building at 431 West Broadway in SoHo, constructed in 1872 and currently owned by Ryan Kraft, has demonstrated generally good building maintenance practices over recent years. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with the most recent reports from 2022-2024 showing zero infested or re-infested units. Regular rodent inspections from 2018 through 2025 have consistently resulted in passing grades, indicating effective pest management.

The building experienced several minor incidents in 2021, including a plumbing issue with water supply that was investigated by HPD with no violations found, and an indoor air quality complaint regarding construction dust that led to an advisory to the property management. April 2021 saw a violation related to the late filing of the annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been a one-time issue given subsequent filings showed zero infestations. Two complaints about illegal after-hours work were submitted in January 2021, but inspectors were unable to gain access during their final attempts to investigate.

The Department of Buildings conducted a tenant safety inspection in April 2021 and found no violations. More recent records show proper filing of bedbug reports for 2021 through 2024, all indicating zero infestations. The building received multiple permits in 2021, including an exterior work permit issued in March. In summary, while there have been a few minor maintenance issues and complaints in the past, the building has maintained good overall conditions with regular inspections, prompt resolution of most issues, and proper documentation of pest control measures.
