763 9th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10019

763 9th Avenue is a four-story, six-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Robert Farhadian and constructed in 1910. The building has experienced several significant events impacting resident experience and safety in recent years.

Most notably, there was a rodent sighting reported in February 2023 that resulted in health violations requiring follow-up inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. The property currently has an active Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection. The building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance, with all six annual reports (from 2021 to 2024) indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units.

Rodent inspections have been regularly conducted, with the most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing successfully, though an initial inspection in February 2023 failed for other reasons. The building's overall compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and recent successful rodent inspections suggest improvements in pest management, despite the health violation noted in early 2023. The property owner has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance since 2021, and the building has passed the majority of its recent rodent inspections, demonstrating ongoing attention to these maintenance issues.
