55 East 73rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10021

The 6-unit, 4-story building at 55 East 73rd Street, owned by Albert Aranabev, is a 1886 HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A property currently facing an open unsanitary condition complaint regarding garbage/recycling storage, filed in May 2025. This recent complaint follows a pattern of similar concerns, as evidenced by a 2021 rodent sighting complaint that could not be inspected due to lack of access.

The building's record shows consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all evaluations from 2010 through 2023. Notably, there is an active violation as of April 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in any of the required annual bedbug filings from 2020 to 2025, showing diligent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements.

Housing Maintenance Code records indicate multiple instances requiring annual bedbug report filings in 2021 and 2024, though these violations appear to have been addressed. The building has undergone three Tenant Safety Inspections between 2021 and 2022, all resulting in no violations being warranted at the time of inspection, including one specific inspection related to egress conditions which also found no violations. While the building has generally shown good maintenance practices, particularly in rodent control and bedbug reporting, the recent unsanitary conditions complaint regarding garbage storage and the active violation for the 2022 external low-pressure inspection filing represent the current primary concerns affecting the property.
