118 East 19th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

118 East 19th Street is a five-story, eight-unit residential building located in Gramercy, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Adam Daniels. The property has experienced several electrical-related issues in recent years, with the most recent complaints filed in March 2025 regarding defective/exposed electrical wiring, which remain in active violation status. These recent violations stemmed from unaddressed objections related to kitchen under-cabinet lighting and electrical circuit requirements.

The building has a documented history of electrical problems, including a June 2022 complaint about an outlet/switch issue that was resolved. The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history, with the most recent reports from 2023-2024 indicating no current infestations, though there was one unit affected during the 2022-2023 reporting period. Rodent inspections from 2020 showed some rat activity, particularly between November 2020 and December 2020, though a compliance inspection in February 2021 passed.

The property has demonstrated some regulatory compliance issues, notably with the failure to file required low-pressure inspection reports in 2022 and 2018, though these violations were subsequently dismissed in May 2025. An illegal hotel room complaint in March 2023 was investigated but found no violations at the time of inspection. The building's maintenance history suggests periodic challenges with electrical systems and regulatory compliance, though recent bedbug and rodent inspections indicate improved conditions in these areas.
