170 East 78th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075
170 East 78th Street is a 10-story, 34-unit residential building constructed in 1927 located in Manhattan's Upper East Side neighborhood. The building, owned by Vito Mangini, has experienced several notable compliance issues in recent years, with the most significant concerns being active violations as of 2024 related to "swamp conditions" and failure to file the Cycle 9C FISP technical report by the February 2024 deadline.
The property has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements over the past seven reporting periods, showing zero infestation cases between 2017 and the most recent 2024-2025 period, which was filed on December 13, 2024. The building has experienced various maintenance and safety-related complaints over the past five years, including three safety-related complaints in 2024 (regarding guard rail damage, inadequate scaffolding, and elevator issues), though inspections found no violations warranted at the time. An Environmental Control Board violation from 2020 indicated refused entry for periodic audits, resulting in a $625 penalty.
Historical records show all rodent inspections from 2010 through 2019 have passed, indicating effective pest control practices. The current state of the building shows active violations that should be noted, specifically regarding swamp conditions and FISP compliance, though the building has generally maintained good records in other areas such as pest management and rodent inspections. Recent activity includes the issuance of a permit in May 2025, suggesting ongoing maintenance or improvement efforts.
