77 Bleecker Street, Manhattan, NY 10012

77 Bleecker Street, a 12-story commercial altered Class A building in Greenwich Village, was built in 1930 and contains 243 units, currently owned by Jacob Sirotkin. The building has a significant history of maintenance and safety issues, particularly in recent years.

Most concerning are two recent violations from February 2025 involving unsanitary mold conditions and a slow water leak, both of which were documented by HPD and resulted in violations being issued. The building has also experienced multiple maintenance issues in 2023, including water supply problems, electrical lighting failures, and various plumbing concerns, though most of these complaints did not result in violations. A notable cluster of violations emerged from Apartment 616 in 2020, with open violations documented for broken plaster, unsafe electric wiring, flooring issues, inadequate gas supply, and missing safety detectors.

The building's recent history shows some improvement regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the most recent filing for 2023-2024, though there was one incident in 2022-2023. Rodent inspections have shown varying results, with a failure noted in July 2023 and other recent failures for "other reasons." The property has undergone several permitted alterations and maintenance works between 2020 and 2022, though there were some violations related to work notifications and safety postings in January 2020. The building has maintained a mostly active compliance record, with multiple permits issued for plumbing and electrical work, though it's worth noting the persistent pattern of maintenance issues that has emerged in recent years, particularly regarding water damage, electrical systems, and safety equipment.
