28 East 4th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

The 8-story, 14-unit building at 28 East 4th Street in NoHo, owned by Divya Rashad and constructed in 1902, has experienced several significant incidents in recent years. Most notably, there are active violations as of August 2024 related to "swamp conditions" and a "Cycle 9C unsafe report" from February 2024. In April 2024, the building was cited for issues with an unauthorized sidewalk shed, resulting in a $1,250 penalty, though this was resolved.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2019, with all annual reports showing zero infested units. Recent inspections have generally been favorable, with 2024 rodent inspections passing and no violations found during recent tenant safety inspections (2025) and sign-related concerns (2024). Historical records show some earlier concerns, including heat and hot water issues in 2019 and air quality complaints, though these were investigated without resulting in violations.

A notable safety concern emerged in 2019 when metal gates blocking primary egress at public hall stairs were reported, though resolved. The building has consistently passed annual rodent inspections, with only one documented incident of rat activity in 2012. While several DOB violations remain active as of mid-2025, the building's overall maintenance record shows regular attention to compliance and safety requirements, with most recent issues being promptly addressed through inspections or fines.
