212 East 88th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128

212 East 88th Street is a 5-story, 20-unit old law tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, built in 1900 and currently owned by Lori Hannan. The building experienced a significant maintenance issue in August 2018, when multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations were issued, primarily affecting the 3rd, 4th, and 5th floor public hall areas, including water damage to ceilings, problems with fire retardant material, and various electrical lighting issues.

These violations were all addressed and certified as corrected by September 21, 2018. More recently, the building has consistently demonstrated good pest control management, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past five years (2021-2025), as documented in the annual bedbug reporting system.

The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, all of which have passed since 2018, with the most recent successful inspection occurring in June 2025. Notably, there was one rodent inspection failure in February 2018, but subsequent compliance checks have consistently shown that the building meets necessary sanitation standards. The building's maintenance history suggests that while there were significant issues in 2018, subsequent years have shown improved conditions, with particular attention to pest management and rodent control.
