304 East 20th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003
304 East 20th Street is an 8-story, 70-unit residential building constructed in 1948 and currently owned by Geoff Ringler. The property has faced persistent pest management challenges over recent years, with multiple reports of rodent and insect infestations, particularly between 2020-2025.
The building experienced significant maintenance issues in 2020-2021, including violations for mold and unsanitary conditions, along with complaints about heating system failures affecting both individual apartments and common areas. More recently, there have been health and hygiene concerns, with a rat sighting reported in January 2025 and a closed pest violation from December 2024 that could not be verified during inspection due to access issues. The building has documented violations related to basic safety systems, including active issues from 2020 regarding a defective boiler electrical system and various open violations concerning exterior building maintenance, such as cracked bricks and inadequate window air conditioner supports.
Compliance records show a pattern of rodent inspection failures, though the most recent inspections in 2025 show passes. Notably, the building has maintained zero bedbug infestations according to official reporting since 2019, and violations related to elevator service and safety systems were addressed, with penalties paid as necessary. The property has also experienced various regulatory requirements, including recently becoming subject to external low pressure inspection filing requirements, which were marked active as of September 2024.
