310 East 70th Street, Manhattan, NY 10021

310 East 70th Street is a 12-story, 135-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, constructed in 1959 and currently owned by Ted Cunningham. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most notable being a power outage in June 2024, a heavy water leak from December 2023 through May 2024, and a pest-related sanitary complaint from January to June 2023. Three regular inspections of the property were conducted under Local Law 188/17 Compliance inspections, with the most recent being active as of September 2024, though a previous inspection in 2023 was marked as "Inspector Unable To Gain Access." The building's elevator system underwent inspection in June 2024, resulting in no violations being found.

The property has maintained a good record in terms of pest control, with no documented bedbug infestations in the past seven reporting periods (2018-2024). A concerning pattern of rodent activity was documented in early 2019, with multiple bait applications recorded, though subsequent inspections showed improvement. The building has shown compliance with various safety inspections, including two Tenant Safety Inspections in 2021, one of which resulted in an Oath Violation being served.

There was an Environmental Control Board violation in 2021 related to an inadequate Tenant Protection Plan during construction work, which resulted in a $2,500 penalty. In 2022, the building was cited for not filing its energy use benchmarking report, though this violation was later dismissed after confirmation of submission. Recent permit activity from 2018-2020 shows regular maintenance and improvement work being conducted, with multiple permits issued for various types of work including electrical, plumbing, and environmental controls.
