Main Street, Manhattan, NY 10044

The 14-story Roosevelt Island building, located at Main Street, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent months, particularly regarding heating and hot water systems. Between March and June 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints about heat/hot water problems affecting the entire building, with at least five separate incidents requiring HPD intervention. The building has also faced challenges with pests and cleanliness, including unsanitary conditions related to pests (May 2025), pigeon odors (May 2025), and mold concerns in Apartment 11E (September 2024).

While the property has passed recent rodent inspections (July 2025) and shows no current bedbug activity, there have been past infestations requiring treatment, including three units in late 2024. The building's maintenance history shows both recurring and resolved issues. Notable improvements were made after violations were issued, including repairs to leaky faucets in Apartment 613 (December 2024) and various repairs in Apartment 1233 (August 2024) related to plastered surfaces and floors.

The property has experienced several heating system disruptions, including boiler complaints (2023), and there have been multiple Department of Buildings violations related to facade maintenance and safety issues. Recent inspections have generally shown compliance, though there were some failures noted in 2024 requiring follow-up actions. The building's management has demonstrated responsiveness to most complaints, as evidenced by the closure of multiple housing maintenance code violations and 311 complaints, though there were instances where inspectors could not gain access to perform required inspections.
