39 East 67th Street, Manhattan, NY 10065

39 East 67th Street is a 5-story, 5-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side neighborhood, built in 1877 and currently owned by Caroline Ryan. The building has a long history of construction activity and maintenance issues, with the most pressing current concern being open Housing Maintenance Code violations related to annual bedbug report filing for the years 2021-2024, which remain unresolved as of 2024. Between 2021-2022, the building underwent significant construction work that resulted in multiple safety violations, including serious concerns about temporary staircase removal, unsafe storage of combustible materials, and various other construction safety issues that collectively incurred penalties totaling $10,750.

Several stop work orders were issued and subsequently rescinded during this period, indicating ongoing compliance challenges. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of rodent inspections between 2010-2019, with most inspections passing, though there was one instance of rat activity in September 2017. Records indicate that elevator compliance issues were noted in 2019, though this violation was eventually dismissed in 2021.

The property has been active in filing permits for various work, with multiple permits issued between 2021-2024, suggesting ongoing building improvements or maintenance work. While many Environmental Control Board violations from 2021-2022 have been resolved, they indicate a period of construction-related challenges including safety concerns and worker compliance issues. The regular issuance of permits and construction-related violations suggests the building has been undergoing significant work over the past several years, with particular focus on addressing various safety and maintenance standards.
