104 East 37th Street, Manhattan, NY 10016

104 East 37th Street is a 6-story, 29-unit Class A apartment building located in Murray Hill, built in 1938 and currently owned by Jack Reader. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a heat and hot water outage in May 2022, which was resolved within three days according to both 311 service records and Housing Maintenance Code complaints.

There are two active violations on record from 2019 and 2023 regarding the failure to file annual boiler and external low pressure inspection reports, respectively. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management compliance, with no reported infestations in the past five years (2020-2025), as evidenced by recent bedbug reports for 2023-2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units. Additionally, the property has passed multiple rodent inspections including the most recent one in March 2025, indicating successful pest control measures.

The building's permit history shows several issued permits between 2019 and 2020, primarily for exterior and plumbing work, with job number 123804936 appearing on multiple permits. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and required inspections, the recent absence of bedbug and rodent issues suggests improved general maintenance in these areas. The property has demonstrated responsiveness to some resident complaints, as evidenced by the swift resolution of the May 2022 heat/hot water issue, though this incident highlights ongoing concerns with the building's heating system infrastructure.
