339 1st Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10003

The 4-story, 6-unit residential building at 339 1st Avenue in Gramercy, owned by 339 First Realty Inc., was constructed in 1910 and has experienced several notable events over recent years. The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with the most recent passing inspection occurring in May 2025, and historical records showing compliance from 2010 through 2018.

While there have been no documented bedbug infestations in any of the unit's annual reports submitted between 2019 and 2022, the property currently has open violations from 2023 and 2024 concerning the filing of annual bedbug reports under the Housing Maintenance Code. The building has faced some public health-related incidents, particularly concerning food establishments in the vicinity, including complaints about bare hand contact with food (2020), food poisoning (2019), and pest issues (2018), all of which were investigated and closed by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. A vaccine mandate non-compliance complaint was filed and closed in 2021, though this appears to be related to a non-residential area.

It's worth noting that while the food-related complaints may raise concerns about general sanitation in the area, the building's rodent control history and the absence of documented infestations suggest relatively good pest management within the residential portion of the building. The building's historical records from 2010 to 2019 show consistent compliance with health and safety standards, but the recent open violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements in 2023 and 2024 are noteworthy. The property has demonstrated prompt response to 311 complaints in the past, with all inquiries receiving official responses.
