148 East 83rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10028

148 East 83rd Street is a 5-story, 10-unit old law tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side neighborhood. Built in 1910 and currently owned by Frank Deguzman, the building has recently encountered significant regulatory issues, with two open Housing Maintenance Code violations as of February 2024 related to lead paint hazard notifications and record-keeping requirements under Local Law 1 of 2004 - one for failure to notify occupants and another for not providing required records to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development.

These violations, categorized as Class C, represent the most serious category of violations in terms of potential resident impact. Despite these concerning lead-related issues, the building has demonstrated consistent pest management success in other areas.

For the past seven years, from 2019 through 2025, the building has maintained a perfect record regarding bedbug infestations, with all reporting periods showing zero infested or re-infested units. Additionally, the building has passed multiple rodent inspections over the years, with the most recent inspections in late 2019 showing successful compliance. The property's inspection history from 2015 through 2023 shows regular inspections, with particular attention to rodent control and bedbug monitoring, though the recent lead-related violations suggest emerging compliance issues that require attention.
