311 East 93rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10128

311 East 93rd Street is a five-story, 11-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Laurie Festa. The building has experienced several significant issues over the past few years, with the most recent being a documented indoor air quality concern in February 2024 related to construction dust, which prompted an advisory to the owner from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH). Additionally, there were instances of rodent activity noted in September 2021 and October 2023, though subsequent inspections showed compliance with health standards.

While the building's rodent inspection history shows a pattern of passing inspections, the October 2023 inspection was particularly noteworthy given the building's previous rodent complaints. The property has maintained a clean record of bedbug problems over the past several years, with annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. The building's rodent inspection results from 2019 to the present indicate consistent monitoring, with most inspections passing, though there have been four instances of rat activity recorded between 2019 and 2024, representing approximately 22% of inspections.

The most recent rodent inspection in October 2024 passed, suggesting current conditions have improved. The building's age, system of regular inspections, and occasional violations are consistent with typical patterns seen in similar historic upper Manhattan tenement buildings. The property has been subject to regular health inspections and monitoring, with the DOHMH maintaining oversight of both rodent and bedbug reporting requirements.
