220 East 95th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128

220 East 95th Street is a 5-story, 24-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, built in 1910 and currently owned by David Magier. The property has experienced persistent rodent issues in 2025, with multiple complaints and confirmed rat activity across inspections from January through July 2025. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has documented violations requiring follow-up inspections, and several recent service requests involving rodent sightings and conditions attracting rodents were filed in March 2025.

The building faced significant heat and hot water system problems in early 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed in January 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. These issues were linked to an earlier building-wide problem and required HPD (Housing Preservation and Development) intervention. Inspections conducted in June 2024 revealed multiple violations in apartments 3A and 5A, including issues with plastered surfaces, wood floors, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detecting devices, and mortar joints. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record over the past six reporting periods from 2019 to 2024, showing no infested or eradicated units.

While there were some violations related to fire escapes in 2020, records indicate they were resolved, though there is currently an active violation concerning a 2023 low-pressure inspection filing. Recent building inspections, including a compliance check in April 2025, continue to show rat activity, despite previous bait applications. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various infrastructure issues, though some violations remain open as of the latest inspection. Separate complaints about unsanitary conditions, including pests, and heating issues have been documented through 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code Complaints.
