The five-story Old Law Tenement building at 408 East 83rd Street, owned by Ahron Freidus, has been experiencing recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns currently being open complaints regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions as of May 2025, and unresolved issues with window/frames as of March 2025. The building has a history of heating system problems, with multiple heat/hot water complaints affecting either the entire building or individual apartments, most recently in February and March 2025.
Between 2022 and 2024, several heating system violations were documented, along with appliance-related issues including two incidents involving electric/gas ranges in 2024. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints about elevator service and safety features between 2019 and 2023, leading to violations in 2021 regarding fire service and door lock monitoring systems. Separate inspections from the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in 2024 found no violations related to rodent control, and the building has consistently passed rodent inspections since 2010.
A comprehensive review of bedbug reports from 2018 to 2024 shows zero infestation cases. The property has exhibited some safety concerns in the past, particularly regarding self-closing doors and emergency exit pathways, with violations issued in 2022-2023, though these were subsequently resolved. Recent compliance history shows improved response to heating and appliance issues, with multiple complaints being resolved through direct tenant verification of corrections.
