226 East 83rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10028
226 East 83rd Street is a 6-story, 28-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Martin Hollander. The building has experienced recurring rodent issues, with the most recent complaints in 2025 showing rat sightings confirmed by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), and multiple inspections revealing rat activity throughout 2024-2025, despite the application of bait in several instances.
The property has a documented history of unsanitary conditions, particularly regarding garbage/recycling storage, with violations noted in 2022 and 2023. Safety concerns have also been recorded, including fire escape problems in early 2022 that resulted in citations, though some safety-related complaints were closed without violations. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various issues, with multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations being addressed, including problems with self-closing doors and accumulated garbage in the compactor closet.
Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past several years, with all annual filings showing zero infested dwelling units. The property has undergone some permitted work, as evidenced by building permits issued in 2018 for exterior and plumbing modifications. While the building has faced several maintenance challenges, particularly with pests and waste management, recent inspections in 2024-2025 indicate ongoing efforts to address rat activity through compliance inspections and bait application.
