233 East 59th Street, Manhattan, NY 10022

233 East 59th Street is a 5-story, 14-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the Upper East Side and owned by Alana Stridirion. The building, constructed in 1910, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed between November 2024 and March 2025. Several of these complaints, including reports for the entire building and individual apartments, were closed without inspection access being granted.

A recent mold complaint filed in March 2025 was inspected by HPD, though no violations were found. The building has several active violations related to safety equipment, including issues with fire escape access, carbon monoxide detectors, and smoke detectors, with violations dating from 2022 showing no certification of correction. Historical data reveals ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding building systems and safety compliance.

There are multiple violations from 2022 related to water leakage, defective plastering, and illegal security features, though some violations have been resolved. The building's boiler and pressure inspection requirements have been inconsistent, with violations for failure to file necessary documentation in 2019 and 2023. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record for pest issues, with no reports of bedbugs in the past three years (2021-2024) and consistent passing scores on rodent inspections from 2010 through 2019. While the building is currently free of documented infestations and has passed all rodent inspections, the recurring heating system problems and outstanding safety violations warrant attention.
