430 East 77th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075

The 6-story, 37-unit residential building at 430 East 77th Street, owned by Georgia Barton and constructed in 1960, has experienced several notable events in recent years. Most concerning is a heat and hot water complaint in April 2024, which the Department of Housing Preservation and Development was unable to investigate due to access issues.

In 2019, the building faced significant issues related to its ground floor laundry facilities, with the Department of Buildings issuing multiple violations regarding unpermitted gas dryer and washer installations, as well as concerns about fire protection systems, though these were subsequently resolved. Earlier violations from 2021 regarding the failure to display energy efficiency scores were eventually dismissed following an approved challenge. The building has maintained a strong record in several areas, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past six years (as evidenced by the building's consistent reporting showing zero infested dwelling units).

Regular rodent inspections between 2010 and 2019 consistently resulted in passing grades, indicating effective pest management. While there was one emergency heat/hot water complaint in 2024, the lack of access for inspection suggests these issues may not have been widespread. The building's laundry facilities, which had regulatory concerns in 2019, appear to have undergone corrections as evidenced by the resolution of multiple environmental violations related to gas equipment installation and testing requirements.
