32 Leroy Street, Manhattan, NY 10014

32 Leroy Street is a 5-story, 10-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the West Village, owned by Kenneth Nagin and built in 1890. The building has experienced recurring rodent issues over the past three years, with recent inspections confirming rat activity as recently as June 2025, though the most recent inspection passed compliance. The property has documented violations, with particularly concerning findings in January 2024 involving both heat and hot water issues in Apartment 10, where temperatures exceeded the 130-degree maximum and heating system access was restricted.

These violations, while closed, indicate past concerns with building systems. Additional infrastructure issues were noted during this period, including problems with self-closing doors. The building has also demonstrated some vulnerability to pests, with a bedbug infestation reported in late 2024, though this appears to have been successfully eradicated.

A safety-related complaint regarding a fire escape was investigated in 2021, though it was ultimately closed without violation. While some rodent inspections have passed compliance, the pattern of complaints and violations suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and systems. The property has maintained adherence to bedbug reporting requirements, with accurate disclosures over multiple reporting periods.
