262 Elizabeth Street, Manhattan, NY 10012
262 Elizabeth Street is a 5-story, 9-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Joel Goldstein, located in the Nolita neighborhood. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most concerning being recent moisture-related problems, evidenced by unsanitary conditions involving mold reported in both August 2023 and December 2024, the latter of which resulted in violations following DOHMH inspection.
The building has also faced multiple security and safety concerns, including an open violation from February 2024 regarding a missing smoke detector in apartment 7, various bell/buzzer/intercom issues throughout 2023-2024 (with violations issued), and fire escape inspections in 2023 showing no violations despite previous concerns. More recent inspections have revealed ongoing maintenance challenges, including several open violations as of 2024 affecting apartment 8, specifically regarding defective plaster surfaces, ceiling leaks, and mold. The building's general upkeep appears to be a persistent issue, with multiple complaints and violations related to public hall conditions, including missing signage and door problems.
It's worth noting that the building has maintained a record of passing rodent inspections consistently since 2018, with the most recent compliance inspection in January 2025. The property has been diligent in its bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infested units in the past three reporting periods (2021-2024). While the building has addressed many of its violations (as evidenced by closed status), there remain several open violations as of 2024 requiring attention, particularly concerning fire safety and general maintenance.
