321 East 71st Street, Manhattan, NY 10021

321 East 71st Street is a 5-story, 39-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, constructed in 1940 and currently owned by Peter Katz. The building has experienced relatively few significant issues over the past decade, with the most notable concerns being a report of rodent signs in October 2022 and indoor air quality concerns related to chemical vapors in March 2020.

Both issues were addressed, with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene finding no violations in the rodent inspection and issuing an advisory for the air quality concern. The property has maintained a strong track record in terms of pest control, as evidenced by its bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2024, showing consistent records of zero infested or re-infested dwelling units each year.

The building has undergone regular rodent inspections since 2010, with all inspections passing successfully, indicating effective management of vermin control measures. A Department of Buildings violation from August 2019 was resolved by March 2020, with no specific description of the violation noted in the records. While the building has had some isolated health and safety concerns, the prompt resolution of these issues and consistent records of passing inspections suggest effective property management practices.
