342 West 88th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

342 West 88th Street is a 4-story, 10-unit residential building constructed in 1894 and currently owned by Gabriel Dror. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent concerns primarily centered around paint and plaster damage in August 2022, affecting both walls and ceilings.

More notably, there are ongoing concerns about lead dust in common areas and apartments reported in February 2021 that remain unresolved as of the latest available information. The building also experienced some mechanical issues in 2021, including a boiler violation that resulted in a penalty related to insufficient signage in the boiler room, though this appears to have been resolved with a payment of $1,412. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, achieving passing results in most recent inspections (January 2025, March 2024, April 2023), though there was one instance of rat activity noted in February 2024 and another in March 2020.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all recent annual reports (2024, 2023, 2022, 2021) indicating zero infested or previously infested units. There have been two notable complaints regarding illegal hotel rooms in 2021 and a boiler issue that resulted in an Oath Violation, though these appear to have been appropriately addressed. The building's maintenance history shows regular inspections and prompt reporting of issues, though some concerns, particularly regarding lead dust, remain outstanding.
