442 East 77th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075
The 16-unit residential building at 442 East 77th Street, owned by Augustine Choi, is a 5-story Old Law Tenement constructed in 1954 in Manhattan's Upper East Side. The building has experienced recurring issues with compliance regarding annual bedbug reports, with four consecutive open violations from 2021 through 2024 related to the failure to file required reports under Housing Maintenance Code regulations.
While the building has maintained a good record in terms of rodent inspections, passing nine consecutive inspections between 2010 and 2019, several significant incidents have occurred in recent years. In 2019, there was an attempted inspection of the boiler system for defects that could not be completed due to access issues.
More recent complaints from 2023, including concerns about debris or falling building materials and a tenant safety inspection, resulted in no violations being warranted at the time of inspection. The Department of Buildings has issued one permit under the EW (Emergency Work) category in 2020, suggesting some maintenance or emergency work was authorized that year.
