247 East 31st Street, Manhattan, NY 10016

247 East 31st Street is a 4-story residential building in Kips Bay, constructed in 1910 and currently containing 28 units. The property, owned by Mario Marchi, has a notable history of bedbug reporting violations, with multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded between 2021 and 2024, all related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations.

However, it's important to note that despite these violations, the building's official bedbug report filings show a consistent pattern of having zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units for the reporting periods in question, including the most recent filing in June 2024 for the period November 2022 - October 2023. In terms of pest management, the building has maintained a strong record regarding rodent inspections, with all inspections since 2010 passed successfully, including the most recent inspection in February 2025.

The consistent passing of rodent inspections over the years, combined with the absence of documented bedbug infestations in official reports, suggests that while there have been compliance issues with the bedbug reporting requirements, the building may have effectively managed pest control overall. The property has demonstrated relatively stable maintenance conditions, with no other significant building violations or complaints on record.
