510 9th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10018

The 22-unit, 6-story Old Law Tenement building at 510 9th Avenue in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Eureka Realty Corp and constructed in 1920, has experienced consistent maintenance challenges over recent years, particularly regarding heat and hot water systems. Between late 2021 and 2022, there were multiple documented complaints about heat and hot water failures affecting the entire building, with several incidents requiring emergency responses from housing authorities. Additional recurring issues involved the building's bell/buzzer/intercom system, with violations issued in both 2021 and 2022.

More recently, in March 2023, the building received an "A" class violation regarding bedbug reporting requirements, and as of September 2024, there is an active violation for failure to file the 2023 external low pressure inspection. The building faced structural concerns in 2023, with a complaint about building shaking/vibrating, though inspectors were unable to gain access to investigate. The most recent egress violation from May 2025 indicates ongoing safety compliance issues.

The property has maintained generally good rodent control, passing inspections regularly from 2019 onward, with only one recorded instance of rat activity in late 2018. During the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 bedbug reporting periods, no infestations were documented in the building. Multiple housing maintenance code violations remain open as of the latest updates, including issues with leaky faucets, defective bell/buzzer systems, self-closing doors, heating system access, and water supply problems, particularly affecting apartment 2B. Apartment A3 has documented violations for mice infestation and repairs needed to plastered surfaces and paint in late 2021, which have not yet been resolved according to the most recent data.
