435 East 85th Street, Manhattan, NY 10028
The 4-story, 70-unit building at 435 East 85th Street in the Upper East Side, built in 1958 and currently owned by Melanie Newman, has undergone several inspections and faced various maintenance issues over recent years. The property has experienced recurring rodent-related challenges, with the most recent inspection in July 2025 passing but showing previous rat activity in 2023.
Despite these issues, inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) have typically found no violations. In late 2020, the building faced multiple emergency maintenance issues in Apartment 3M involving electrical, plumbing, and flooring problems, leading to violations that required attention. These included defective electrical outlets, a leaky bathtub faucet, damaged bathroom tiles, and issues with the kitchen sink waste connection.
The building's maintenance record shows consistent bedbug reporting compliance from 2019 through 2023, with most reports showing no infested units, though there were two infested units in 2017-2018, which were reportedly eradicated. Two permits were also issued in 2020 related to electrical work, with one of the permits specifically issued on August 3, 2020. The property has generally maintained compliance with health and safety inspections, with a recent focus on addressing rodent activity through baiting programs in 2023, though initial inspections during that period noted rat activity.
