105 East 24th Street, Manhattan, NY 10010

105 East 24th Street is a 6-story, 43-unit residential building constructed in 1939 and currently owned by Maurice Sohaye. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in recent years, with emergency complaints lodged in both January and December 2025, as well as multiple incidents in late 2019, including both whole building and apartment-specific complaints. These recent heating problems follow a pattern of similar complaints dating back to at least 2018, suggesting an ongoing infrastructure challenge.

The property has undergone several inspections and repairs over the past few years, including a 2023 violation requiring door repair in apartment 6G and multiple bedbug reporting requirements from 2021-2025, all of which reported zero infested units. In 2020, there were issues with wall and ceiling conditions requiring attention, along with violations related to safety equipment in apartment 6C regarding smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The building has also faced regulatory scrutiny regarding construction work, with multiple complaints about unauthorized work and failure to post required notices in 2020, though most of these issues were resolved through proper channels.

While the building's management has generally addressed violations and maintenance issues when identified, access problems during inspections have been noted in several complaints, including the most recent heating complaints in 2023-2025. The property has maintained compliance with rodent control measures, passing all recent inspections since 2018 and demonstrating proper reporting and eradication procedures through its bedbug monitoring system. Recent inspections have focused primarily on basic maintenance and safety compliance, with the most significant ongoing concern being the recurring heating system issues that have affected multiple units throughout the building.
