324 East 90th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128
The five-story, 10-unit residential building at 324 East 90th Street, built in 1920 and currently owned by Ben Ohebshalom, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past two years, with particular emphasis on water-related problems. Most concerning are the recent heating system failures in January 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, though these issues were promptly addressed within days. The building has a documented history of water-related problems, including multiple complaints about slow leaks and water supply issues between 2022 and 2024, as well as a significant water leak incident in September 2023 that resulted in Class B violations issued against Apartment 5W for ceiling and wall repairs.
Additional maintenance concerns have included mold issues (April 2023), plumbing problems (May 2024), and unsanitary conditions, though many of these complaints were resolved following HPD inspections. Recent inspections and violations indicate structural and safety concerns, particularly regarding unauthorized modifications. In 2023, multiple violations were documented relating to an allegedly illegal roof-level occupation and construction in Apartment 5W, including questions about sleeping quarters, recreation space, and an unauthorized staircase structure, with a specific violation issued for unpermitted partition installation.
The building's maintenance history also shows periodic rodent activity, with recent inspections in 2025 confirming the presence of rats, while previous years showed a mix of passed and failed inspections for pest management. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in recent years. While many historical violations have been resolved, there remains one open Class B violation regarding mold remediation in Apartment 5W from May 2023, and there were several past violations related to illegal laundry equipment installation under staircases and sprinkler system issues in 2021.
