214 East 83rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10028
214 East 83rd Street is a 5-story, 20-unit residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Harris Sarraf. The building has experienced persistent pest control issues, with three pest-related complaints filed between August 2024 and May 2025, and recent rodent activity documented through multiple inspections, the most recent being in May 2025.
The property has also faced ventilation and air quality concerns, including an indoor air quality complaint in March 2023 that resulted in an advisory to the management. Between 2023-2024, multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations were issued and subsequently resolved, including problems with self-closing doors, fire escape obstructions, and the requirement to repair fire-rated materials in public halls. The building's mechanical systems have been a focus of inspection activity, with three separate boiler-related complaints documented between 2021-2022, and violations noted in the Environmental Control Board records regarding unsafe steam controls and safety valve discharge issues.
While the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infested units across multiple annual filings from 2021 through 2024, the property has undergone various inspections and baiting treatments for rat activity between 2022 and 2025, indicating an ongoing rodent control challenge. Recent inspections (as of May 2025) have continued to show rat activity. The building has been proactive in addressing violations, as evidenced by prompt certification of corrections, though the recurring nature of pest-related complaints suggests these issues remain a significant concern for residents.
