416 East 73rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10021

The 20-unit, 5-story building at 416 East 73rd Street in the Upper East Side, owned by David Ohebshalom, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues over the past three years (2023-2025). Most concerning are the recent mold and slow water leak complaints in early 2025 that were inspected but did not result in identified housing law violations.

The building has faced persistent water-related problems, with multiple leaks documented in 2024, particularly affecting apartment 4C, which received several "B" class violations in June 2024 related to water leaks, bathroom issues, and carbon monoxide detector compliance. The property has also had ongoing rodent problems, with multiple rat activity reports and bait applications recorded throughout 2024-2025, most recently in January 2025.

Additional notable history includes infrastructure concerns with a defective boiler in late 2024 (with an active violation as of December 2024) and previous violations related to building safety standards when the property was allegedly being used for transient purposes in 2018-2019, including issues with means of egress and fire alarm systems, though these were ultimately resolved. The building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with most recent reports (2024-2025) showing no active infestations. While the property has seen regular inspections and prompt reporting of issues, the recurring nature of water and pest problems suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
