325 East 77th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075

The six-story, 59-unit residential building at 325 East 77th Street, owned by Daniel Dermer and built in 1940, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in recent months, with four emergency complaints filed through 311 between December 2024 and April 2025, though HPD was often unable to gain access for inspections. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management, showing no active infestations in the past five reporting periods from 2019 through 2024, with only one unit reported infested in 2019 that was subsequently eradicated.

Recent rodent inspections present a mixed picture of pest management, with three 'Rat Activity' results in 2023 (April, June, and July) suggesting ongoing challenges, following several years of passing inspections between 2016 and 2029. The building's historical records show several significant events, including three tenant safety inspections in 2021, though no violations were found at the time of inspection.

There is an active violation regarding the failure to display energy efficiency scores and grades from 2021, and a construction-related ECB violation from June 2021 involved a $2,500 penalty for not complying with the Tenant Protection Plan, though this was resolved. The Department of Buildings issued various permits, including one in 2019 for work identified under job number 123417579. While the building has faced occasional maintenance challenges, the absence of recent bedbug activity and mostly routine building operations suggest that major systemic issues have been managed, though the recurring heat/hot water complaints and current rodent activity require attention.
