108 East 37th Street, Manhattan, NY 10016
108 East 37th Street is a 7-unit, 6-story residential building in Murray Hill, constructed in 1921 and currently owned by Arent Venema. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over recent years, with the most significant concerns occurring in 2019-2020. Notable violations included a serious safety issue in 2019 regarding an unsafe building facade that required protective measures like sidewalk sheds and netting (resulting in a $10,000 fine), and multiple instances of failing to certify corrections on immediately hazardous violations.
The building experienced elevator service disruptions in late 2020, and there were reports of building shaking/vibration in December 2019, though no violations were found during inspection. More recent history suggests some improvement in conditions, with no bedbug infestations reported in annual filings from 2019 to 2025, and successful rodent inspections in 2025 showing compliance after a March 2025 initial inspection indicating rat activity. The building has maintained regular compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with all recent filings showing zero infested or eradicated units.
Two work permits were issued in 2019 and 2021, indicating ongoing maintenance activity. The property has also accrued penalties for various violations, including a $1,250 fine in 2020 for elevator-related issues, though most violations have been resolved or dismissed in subsequent years. While the building's recent record shows improved conditions regarding pests and compliance, the historical pattern of violations suggests ongoing need for maintenance attention.
