117 East 18th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

The 7-story, 4-unit building at 117 East 18th Street in Gramercy, owned by Michael Simon and constructed in 1930, has a relatively clean record over the past decade. Most notably, the building has consistently maintained a bedbug-free environment, with six consecutive annual reports (2017-2024) showing no infested units, and the most recent report for the period ending October 2024 confirming zero infestations or eradications.

The building's rodent inspections from 2010, 2011, and 2012 also all received passing grades, indicating good pest management practices. The Department of Buildings (DOB) and Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violation history is minimal. A bedbug reporting violation was recorded in March 2022, but this appears to be an administrative issue rather than a pest infestation concern.

Recent activity has primarily involved routine inspections and administrative matters, including two DOB violations from 2020 and 2021 related to elevator equipment, which were resolved by February 2022. Three complaints were filed between 2019 and 2025 regarding various matters (illegal storefront sign, elevator devices, and a joint FDNY/DOB inspection request), none of which resulted in sustained violations or safety concerns. The most recent Joint FDNY/DOB inspection in March 2025 resulted in a service of an Oath Violation, though the specific nature of this violation is not detailed in the available records.
