225 East 24th Street, Manhattan, NY 10010

225 East 24th Street is a 5-story, 4-unit residential building in Kips Bay, constructed in 1915 and currently owned by Divya Rashad. The property has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues in recent years, most prominently in 2022 when multiple violations were recorded for electrical wiring issues, construction without proper permits, and failure to maintain building systems. These included problems with exposed wiring, unauthorized electrical work in the lobby and basement, and concerns about roof-mounted HVAC equipment.

In October 2023, an elevator-related violation was documented, with an associated penalty of $655 for noise and maintenance issues. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record over the past seven reporting periods (2018-2025), with no infestations reported. The property's maintenance history shows a pattern of inspection and violation resolution, with all previous complaints being addressed, though some remain active as of the latest records.

These include violations related to unpermitted roof modifications, including the installation of AC units and associated electrical work, for which penalties totaling $2,395 were imposed between 2021 and 2022. The most recent inspection for rodents in April 2025 passed successfully, continuing a pattern of compliance with pest control standards dating back to at least 2010. While the building has faced various maintenance challenges, including issues with construction debris, site conditions, and general maintenance requirements, it has consistently addressed violations through permits and corrective actions, as evidenced by the multiple electrical work permits issued between 2018 and 2020.
