239 East 33rd Street is a 4-story, 19-unit residential building located in Kips Bay, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Tal Adini. The building has experienced various maintenance issues over recent years, with the most significant concerns occurring in late 2020 when multiple violations were issued regarding safety systems, specifically for carbon monoxide and smoke detectors. The property has had recurring rodent-related issues, with the most recent inspections in 2021 and 2025 passing, though earlier inspections in 2019 showed rat activity.

A series of violations was documented in April 2022, including concerns about fire safety systems, electrical outlets, and various maintenance issues in common areas, though these were subsequently certified as corrected. Recent building maintenance history shows attention to compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no infestation reports filed since 2022. The property had two significant Department of Buildings complaints in 2021 and 2022 regarding work without permits and boiler issues, though there's currently a boiler-related violation from 2022 still listed as active.

The building has maintained regular inspections for various safety systems, and while there have been multiple violations recorded over the years, most have been resolved or dismissed based on subsequent inspections. Recent rodent inspections in 2025 passed, indicating current pest control measures are effective. The building's history suggests ongoing management of maintenance issues, though periodic violations and complaints indicate some challenges with consistent compliance across all systems and requirements.
