235 East 60th Street, Manhattan, NY 10022

The 4-story, 5-unit building at 235 East 60th Street, owned by Elsa Zegelstein, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, particularly evident during a notable period in June 2019 when multiple complaints were filed and violations issued concerning building-wide heating problems. More recently, in 2023, the building faced multiple violations related to apartment 3R requiring various repairs, including addressing defective plaster surfaces, floor tiles, and bathroom conditions, which were all certified as resolved by late May to early June 2023.

The building maintains an active status for multiple violations concerning external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2022, as per documents issued in June 2023. Recent maintenance history shows some attention to building systems, including a non-emergency intercom system issue reported in June 2024 that was promptly addressed. The building has demonstrated good pest control management over the years, with consistent Bedbug Reporting filings showing zero infested units from 2019 through 2024.

Regular rodent inspections conducted from 2010 through 2019 also consistently passed. The property has maintained compliance with basic safety inspections, including a recent Department of Building inspection in April 2025 regarding debris concerns. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, the majority have been addressed promptly, though the outstanding violations regarding low-pressure inspections represent an ongoing compliance matter.
