56 East 87th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128
The 6-story, 33-unit building at 56 East 87th Street, owned by Divya Rashad, has been in operation since 1923 as a New Law Tenement. Most recently, in April 2024, the building received several Housing Maintenance Code violations related to safety and maintenance requirements, including issues with door self-closing mechanisms, required signage for the building's heating system keyholder, and the proper framing of inspection certificates near mailboxes.
While some of these violations have been closed, one Class C violation regarding the heating system notice remains open as of October 2023. The building has also had recurring issues with its energy efficiency reporting, receiving multiple violations between 2020 and 2024 for failing to display the required energy efficiency score and grade, though these violations were ultimately dismissed. The property underwent façade inspection in 2023, which was marked as "Unsafe," and has had three separate issues related to its Facade Inspection and Safety Program (FISP) in 2022-2023, though these violations were also dismissed.
Importantly, the building has maintained a clean record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years, and rodent inspections from 2010 through 2019 consistently passed. Multiple work permits were issued in 2018-2019, primarily for exterior and plumbing work, indicating ongoing maintenance and improvements to the property. The building's most recent bedbug report from December 2024 shows zero infestation cases for the 2023-2024 period, continuing the trend of successful pest management.
