38 Carmine Street, Manhattan, NY 10014

38 Carmine Street is a 4-story, 5-unit residential building located in New York City's West Village, dating back to 1826 and currently owned by Serge Hoyda. The property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, most notably in early 2025 when there were confirmed violations for both unsanitary mold conditions and inadequate heat/hot water, though these issues were addressed within a few days of reporting.

In 2022, there were incidents involving pests and electrical problems (outlet/switch), and plumbing issues with a bathtub/shower that inspectors were unable to access. A significant health-related incident occurred in 2018 involving food poisoning and subsequent health department inspections, as well as a food establishment grading issue. The building's maintenance record shows regular attention to pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years (as per the latest bedbug reports from 2019-2024) and consistent passing scores on rodent inspections conducted annually from 2016 to 2024.

Housing violations from 2021 indicated a failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under the Housing Maintenance Code, though this appears to have been corrected in subsequent years. Recent complaints include a work-without-permit issue in January 2025 that was referred to the Department of Consumer Affairs, and an illegal after-hours work complaint from 2018 that inspection could not substantiate. The building's age and history as an "OLD LAW TENEMENT" are consistent with its West Village location, though the recent pattern of heating system issues and mold problems may be of particular note.
