516 East 79th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075

The 99-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 516 East 79th Street in Manhattan's Upper East Side, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Laura Ferraro, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past several years, with the most recent complaint occurring in January 2024 and multiple complaints documented throughout 2020-2021. These heat-related complaints, categorized as emergencies, affected both individual apartments and the entire building, though many were resolved promptly or reported as corrected conditions.

The building has maintained a clean record in terms of bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past eight years, and passed multiple rodent inspections between 2010 and 2021, indicating effective pest management. The property has a history of regulatory compliance, though there were two incidents of failure to file energy benchmarking reports in 2019, which were subsequently dismissed.

All Department of Buildings inspections related to the building, including a Special Operations Compliance Inspection in 2019, found no violations at the time of inspection. Recent records show consistent reporting of hygiene and safety conditions, with all complaints being properly investigated and resolved, though access for inspections was occasionally unavailable. Two electrical work permits related to the property were issued in 2020, suggesting ongoing infrastructure maintenance and improvements.
