164 East 90th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128

The five-story, 17-unit Old Law Tenement building at 164 East 90th Street on the Upper East Side, owned by Jason Glick, has experienced several maintenance and pest-related issues over recent years. Most notably, the property has had recurring problems with water-related infrastructure, including a significant water leak reported in March 2023 that took five months to resolve, and multiple ventilation and water tank connection issues documented in July 2023 in apartment 2RW, for which violations were issued and later closed.

The building has also faced challenges with pest management, having reported bedbug infestations in the most recent filing period (2023-2024), though prior years showed no such issues since 2019-2020. Rodent control has been another persistent concern; while recent inspections in 2025 resulted in passing grades, there were documented instances of rat activity in nearby inspections in late 2024 and early 2025, following multiple "passed" inspections in previous years.

The property has a history of varied compliance results with health inspections, including a pigeon waste violation in 2021 and a rat sighting in 2022, though the building generally maintains adequate sanitary conditions based on inspection results. While some maintenance issues have been addressed, the recurring nature of water-related problems, pest control challenges, and rodent activity suggests ongoing maintenance and monitoring requirements for this century-old structure.
