998 5th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10028
The 13-story, 17-unit building at 998 5th Avenue, owned by Darryl Rankin, is a New Law Tenement constructed in 1912. Recent concerning developments include an active Department of Buildings violation from August 2024 regarding swarm conditions, and other active violations from February 2024 related to FISP Cycle 9C reporting requirements.
The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections over the past decade, with the most recent inspections in July and September 2024 showing no issues. Notably, there have been zero documented bedbug infestations in any unit since 2017, as evidenced by six consecutive annual reports showing infested unit counts of 0. The property has experienced several health-related incidents, primarily involving mobile food vendors between late 2022 and 2023, including multiple equipment-related complaints and a 2023 complaint regarding insects/pests, though these issues were determined to require no violations following inspections.
Current health concerns include a food poisoning incident from August 2024, though this was deemed an isolated incident by the Department of Health. Historical records show the building had multiple permit issuances between 2020 and 2021, though specific details of the work completed under these permits are not provided in the data. The building's most pressing current issues appear to be the active violations related to swarm conditions and FISP reporting, while the pest management track record remains strong with no bedbug cases reported in recent years.
