114 East 62nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10065

The 4-unit, 3-story building at 114 East 62nd Street, owned by Margot Berg, has been experiencing notable maintenance issues recently, most concerningly evidenced by two concurrent complaints in March 2025 regarding mold and water leakage, specifically involving damp spots and unsanitary conditions. Both complaints were marked as emergencies, though HPD was unable to complete inspections in response.

The building, constructed in 1870 and classified as a converted Class A building, has shown repeated non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, receiving violations in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 under Housing Maintenance Code § HMC requiring annual bedbug report submissions. A potentially significant open violation from April 2023 remains active concerning failure to file the 2022 External Low Pressure Inspection.

On a more positive note, the building has maintained successful rodent inspections since 2012, with the most recent inspection in February 2023 passing without issues, following only one report of rat activity in May 2011. The property has shown compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements in recent years, with the exception of the bedbug reporting violations. While the recent complaints suggest current maintenance challenges, the historical data shows periods of proper maintenance and compliance, though the pattern of bedbug report violations over multiple years indicates an ongoing administrative oversight in this regard.
