12 East 8th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003
12 East 8th Street is a 5-story, 4-unit residential building in Greenwich Village, constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Angel Perlaza. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over recent years, with the most concerning pattern being related to unauthorized work and safety violations. In 2021, multiple serious violations were recorded regarding unpermitted plumbing work, including issues with gas lines and water-pressure booster pump modifications, resulting in penalties of $2,500 and $1,250 respectively.
During this period, there were also violations related to failure to maintain proper tenant protection plans during renovation work in units 5A and 5B on the 5th floor. More recently, in 2023 and 2024, there were complaints about work contrary to stop work orders, though these were ultimately unsubstantiated. The building's maintenance record shows consistent efforts to address pest control issues, with bedbug reporting compliance demonstrated through filings between 2021-2025 showing zero infested units.
The property has maintained a good record in rodent inspections, passing all inspections conducted between 2010 and 2024. A concerning pattern emerged in 2019-2020 regarding inadequate entrance lighting, resulting in a Class B violation. While the building has experienced various compliance issues over the years, the current bedbug reporting period (2024-2025) shows no infestation, and recent rodent inspections have passed. The Department of Buildings records indicate that most violations, once identified, have been resolved, though there were multiple instances of unpermitted work and failure to properly certify corrections between 2019-2021 that raised concerns about adherence to safety protocols.
