37 East 83rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10028

The 4-story, 9-unit residential building at 37 East 83rd Street, currently owned by Andrew Schwartz, was constructed in 1920 and has undergone historical conversion to Class A status. The building has experienced several notable issues over the past decade, with the most concerning being the persistent bedbug reporting violations.

Between 2019 and 2024, the building received four consecutive violations for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports, with the most recent violation still remaining open as of 2024. In 2018-2019, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding water leaks (heavy flow) and mold issues, though inspection access was not granted in these cases.

The building has also faced significant compliance issues related to safety and maintenance requirements, particularly during a cluster of April 2019 inspections, which revealed violations including missing gas leak procedure notices, electrical outlet cover issues, and shortcomings in required safety posting, though all of these violations remain open and unaddressed as of 2024. While the building has maintained a solid record of passing routine rodent inspections from 2010 through 2019, and a sidewalk shed complaint from 2020 was found to warrant no violations, the ongoing bedbug reporting violation and historical water and mold issues suggest areas of concern regarding maintenance responsiveness.
