22 East 82nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10028

22 East 82nd Street is a 9-story, 9-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, with a history dating back to 1901. The property, currently owned by Michael Bitton, has experienced several noteworthy events over the past few years. In 2019, the building received multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to safety and notification requirements, including the need to post information about gas leak procedures, smoke and carbon monoxide detector requirements, and various building safety notices.

These violations were certified as resolved in late 2019. The building faced intermittent pest control challenges, with documented mouse and rat sightings in 2018 and 2020, though follow-up rodent inspections in 2018-2020 showed consistent passing results, and the most recent rodent-related issues were resolved. More recent history shows no recorded infestations of bedbugs from 2019 through 2024, with zero infested or eradicated units reported in annual filings. The building underwent several maintenance and repair work permits between 2018 and 2021, with most recent permits issued in 2021 for electrical work.

Two recent Department of Buildings complaints were filed in 2023, though both inspections resulted in "No Violation Warranted" findings or were unable to gain access. The property has generally maintained compliance with health and safety inspections, with no violations found during recent Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspections. The building's heat and hot water system, which experienced a complaint in 2019, was inspected and found to have no violations at that time. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues historically, records indicate that most problems have been addressed promptly and resolved through proper channels.
