447 East 57th Street, Manhattan, NY 10022
The 15-story New Law Tenement at 447 East 57th Street, built in 1928 and managed by Richard Hirschman, contains 23 units and is located in Midtown Manhattan. The building has experienced several significant events over recent years, most notably during 2021 when multiple construction-related incidents occurred, leading to several Stop Work Orders that were all ultimately fully rescinded. During this period, the Department of Buildings issued four Construction Safety Compliance actions in May 2021 and documented multiple Environmental Control Board violations in August 2021, including safety issues with uninstalled safety measures, open areas on the sidewalk shed, and missing required detail drawings related to construction equipment.
These violations resulted in penalties totaling $4,125, though records indicate these were resolved. The building has maintained a clean pest control record over the past seven years, with no reported bedbug infestations in any of the annual reporting periods from 2018 through 2024. Recent inspections for rodent control in January 2025 passed successfully, continuing a history of good maintenance in this area with all inspections since 2010 showing compliance.
The property's permit history shows regular maintenance and work permits being issued, with several issued between 2021-2023 for various construction and equipment needs. The most recent building complaint was filed in August 2023 but resulted in no violations being found during inspection. While the 2021 construction issues represented a significant cluster of problems, subsequent years have shown improved compliance and maintenance practices, with no recurring violation patterns or pest issues in recent records.
