231 East 76th Street is a 9-story, 90-unit residential building constructed in 1937 and currently owned by Daniel Hochberg. The building has undergone significant recent activity, particularly in 2023-2024, including multiple complaints regarding construction-related lead dust (ongoing from March 2024) affecting common areas and apartments, and an indoor air quality issue from construction dust in June 2024. There have been persistent rodent issues, with inspections showing rat activity in 2023-2024, and multiple tenant complaints about heat and hot water problems throughout 2023-2024, including emergency complaints in January 2024.
The building has also experienced maintenance challenges, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations in late 2023, including problems with self-closing doors, paint/plaster issues, and an infestation violation affecting apartment 6H. The property has a documented history of bedbug infestations, with three reported cases from 2018-2024, though most recent reports show no active infestations. Various Department of Buildings complaints in 2023-2024 raised concerns about construction practices, with multiple inspections finding no violations, though a September 2023 violation regarding inadequate tenant protection was issued with a $1,250 penalty.
The building's maintenance history includes regular inspections for rat activity, with compliance inspections in 2023-2024 consistently showing rat presence. Recent complaints from January 2025 regarding window frames and wall conditions were closed due to lack of access for inspection. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent report from 2024 showing one infested unit that was treated and eradicated.
