214 East 70th Street, Manhattan, NY 10021

214 East 70th Street is a 4-unit, 4-story residential building located on Manhattan's Upper East Side, built in 1880 and currently owned by Paul Irvine. The building has experienced consistent attention to its bedbug reporting requirements, with annual violations issued from 2021 to 2024 for failing to file the required reports, though these violations have been correctly addressed in subsequent years.

As of July 2025, the most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 31, 2024, shows no infestation, eradication, or re-infestation cases. The building's elevator system appears to require attention, with an active Department of Buildings violation from 2019 related to unresolved defects identified during a 2017 Category 1 inspection. The property has maintained good overall hygiene and safety standards, as evidenced by passing multiple rodent inspections between 2010 and 2019, with all results showing compliance.

A building permit for elevator work was issued in July 2018, though it's unclear from the provided data whether this work was completed successfully. The consistent pattern of bedbug report violations from 2021-2024 suggests there may have been some initial difficulties with compliance, but the subsequent clean records indicate improved adherence to this particular requirement. The building's historical data shows regular maintenance of safety standards, with particular attention needed to resolve the outstanding elevator violation for improved resident safety and comfort.
