145 Spring Street, Manhattan, NY 10012

145 Spring Street, an 8-story mixed-use residential/artist building in SoHo built in 1910 and currently owned by Ralph Sitt, has a complex history of maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. The building has consistently filed bedbug reports showing zero infested units from 2020 through 2024, with the most recent report from May 2024 covering the period from November 2022 to October 2023. The property has demonstrated regular rodent inspection compliance, passing all inspections from 2018 to 2025.

Recent active violations include an unfiled FISP (Facades Inspection Safety Program) Cycle 9C technical report due by February 2024, and previous facade-related issues with spalling brick and damaged mortar joints noted in 2023. The building's maintenance history reveals several recurring issues requiring attention to building safety and code compliance. Between 2019 and 2024, multiple violations were documented regarding facade maintenance, including requirements for painting and rust removal from fire escape components and balconies.

There have been multiple complaints about unauthorized work in occupied multiple dwellings, with inspectors unable to gain access during several visits. Notable safety concerns have included blocked emergency exit passageways and non-compliant door hardware, though these violations were subsequently resolved. The building has maintained active compliance with rodent control and bedbug reporting requirements in recent years, with no reported infestations or related units. While some building systems have required attention, including electrical work and HVAC system modifications, many of these issues have been addressed through permits and subsequent inspections, as evidenced by the permit history showing consistent maintenance and improvements through 2021-2023.
