151 East 79th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075
151 East 79th Street is a 15-story, 16-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Chris Eisler. The building has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing being a heat/hot water complaint in February 2025 that HPD could not investigate due to access issues. In 2019, there was a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene complaint regarding unsanitary pigeon conditions.
The building underwent a significant code compliance inspection in May 2018, resulting in multiple violations related to safety notice postings, including requirements for smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, and gas leak procedures. These violations were certified as corrected by June 2018. Recent administrative records show generally good maintenance practices, with no reported bedbug infestations since at least 2017 and passing rodent inspections in 2019, 2022, and multiple previous years.
The building's 2024 Benchmarking Report submission was confirmed as received, though there was an initial violation issued in May 2024. The property has had several emergency work permits issued between 2018-2019, indicating responsiveness to maintenance needs. While the building has experienced some recurring maintenance issues, particularly with heat/hot water systems, the overall trend shows active management with prompt resolution of most violation notices, though there are occasional access-related inspection challenges.
