697 10th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10036
The 16-unit, 5-story building at 697 10th Avenue (Hell’s Kitchen), owned by Steven Croman, has experienced several significant maintenance issues since 2019, with the most recent problems primarily occurring in 2024. Notable recent concerns include multiple safety equipment complaints in January 2024 (carbon monoxide and smoke detectors) and electrical issues, though no violations were found upon inspection. The building has undergone several rodent inspections and pest management efforts, showing an active approach to this recurring issue, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 passing.
Other significant maintenance events include a heat/hot water issue in July 2023 that was reportedly resolved, and multiple sanitation-related complaints including garbage storage issues and pest problems. The building's history reveals recurring patterns, particularly regarding rodent management and maintenance of safety systems. While there were previous water-related issues documented in 2021 concerning roof leaks affecting Apartment 5FS, these were apparently resolved.
The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history from 2019 to the present, consistently reporting zero infested units, which suggests effective pest management practices. There is currently one active violation from April 2023 regarding an external low-pressure inspection that remains unresolved. The property has undergone multiple inspections and received various service requests over the years, with most issues being promptly addressed, though inspection access was sometimes restricted, as noted in a rat sighting complaint in November 2023 and a work without permit complaint in March 2023.
