217 East 84th Street, Manhattan, NY 10028

217 East 84th Street is a 5-story, 20-unit New Law Tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, owned by Donald Manocherian and constructed in 1920. The building experienced significant maintenance and compliance issues in 2018, particularly concerning Apartment 5B on the 5th floor, which was the subject of multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations throughout the year. These violations documented serious structural problems including loose and eroding bricks, exposed charred joists, and ceiling issues, leading to substantial penalties totaling over $10,200, though all violations have since been resolved, with the last noted resolution being in April 2018.

The building underwent some construction work during this period, as indicated by multiple permits issued in 2018 and early 2019, including plumbing and electrical work. In more recent years, the building has maintained a good record regarding pest control and sanitation. There have been no reported bedbug infestations since 2021, with the most recent annual filings (2023-2024) showing zero infested or re-infested units.

The property has passed all rodent inspections conducted between 2016 and June 2025, demonstrating consistent compliance with health and safety standards. The regularity of the rodent inspections and their successful outcomes suggests effective ongoing maintenance and monitoring of building conditions. The last five bedbug reports (2020-2024) indicate stable management of pest control, with no current infestations on record.
