330 East 77th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075

330 East 77th Street is a 5-story, 20-unit converted old law tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, built in 1900 and currently owned by Ron Cherney. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues in recent months, with multiple complaints filed between April and May 2025, including several building-wide and apartment-specific incidents. These emergencies impacted both individual units and the entire building, though inspections often faced access issues, making resolution verification challenging.

The building has maintained an active compliance record for bedbug reporting, with no documented infestations or eradications between 2021 and 2024, and has passed all rodent inspections conducted between 2010 and 2020. The property has a history of mechanical and plumbing-related issues, as demonstrated by Housing Maintenance Code violations, including an open violation from October 2023 regarding access to the heating system, and a specific hot water issue documented in apartment 1C. Historical records indicate two Environmental Control Board violations from 2019 related to construction safety equipment and netting, which resulted in penalties of $3,125 each.

The building's systems have undergone various inspections and repairs, with mixed results regarding inspection access. Most recently, between April and May 2025, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development responded to multiple heat and hot water complaints, though many inspections were either incomplete or faced access challenges. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance, consistently showing zero infestation cases, and has passed multiple rodent inspections over the years, indicating effective pest management.
