245 East 84th Street, Manhattan, NY 10028

245 East 84th Street is a 20-story, 82-unit residential building constructed in 1986 and currently owned by Maria Sciortino. The property has experienced significant plumbing and heating system challenges in early 2025, with multiple complaints about water supply issues, steam pipe problems, and building-wide heat/hot water concerns in February and March 2025. Of particular note, during this period, HPD inspectors were consistently unable to gain access to units for inspection purposes, and several complaints were closed without proper inspection follow-up, including issues related to water leaks, plumbing systems, and wall conditions.

The building also underwent facade work in late 2024, which generated multiple construction safety compliance complaints, though these were ultimately resolved in early 2025. The building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding pest control, with the most recent bedbug report (2024-2025) showing no infested units. Rodent inspections have consistently passed from 2019 through 2025, with only occasional bait applications noted.

A single Housing Maintenance Code violation was recorded in late 2023 regarding self-closing doors in apartment 12C, though this was certified as corrected in December 2023. The property has generated multiple 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints related to plumbing and water supply issues throughout 2025, indicating ongoing infrastructure challenges that have prompted repeated tenant notifications and service requests. While the building's basic systems appear to undergo regular inspections and maintenance, the frequency of recent plumbing complaints suggests potential ongoing concerns in this area.
