228 East 75th Street, Manhattan, NY 10021
228 East 75th Street is a 4-story, 10-unit New Law tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, built in 1910 and currently owned by Marianne Macdonald. The building has experienced recurring moisture-related issues, particularly in September and October 2020, when multiple complaints were filed and subsequently investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).
These complaints included reports of slow water leaks, damp spots, and paint/plaster issues, though no violations were ultimately issued. More recently, in June 2025, there were two notable maintenance complaints: one regarding an electrical outlet/switch issue and another concerning an unsanitary mold condition, both of which were closed within two weeks. The property has a mix of open violations from late 2020 that warrant attention, including issues with fire-retardant plaster repairs, ceiling painting requirements, and roof leaks affecting the 4th story public hall.
Despite these ongoing concerns, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested units. The building's rodent inspection history also shows consistent passing results from 2010 through 2023, indicating effective pest management practices. The most recent bedbug report from December 2024 covering the 2023-2024 period shows no infestations, and the property has been regularly submitting required annual reports since 2019, maintaining compliance with HPD regulations.
