404 East 88th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128
404 East 88th Street is a 6-story, 49-unit residential building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by John McCarthy. The Upper East Side property has experienced recurring pest management issues over the past several years, with the most recent cluster of rodent-related complaints occurring between 2024 and 2025, including three rat sightings and multiple reports of rodent signs. Official inspections typically showed no violations, though some inspections confirmed rat activity, and bait was applied during several inspections throughout 2024-2025.
The building has maintained regular Bedbug Reporting compliance, with minimal infestation rates, showing no or very few infested units since 2019, with the most recent reports from 2025 indicating only one previously infested unit that was successfully eradicated. The building has faced several other maintenance challenges, particularly in 2018, when multiple violations related to building facade maintenance, including issues with defective masonry and fire escape components, were documented. There were also three emergency heat/hot water complaints in November 2018, and issues with construction-related scaffolding violations and a stop-work order was issued.
More recently, in 2025, the property underwent tenant safety inspections in March and April, which found no violations at the time of inspection. Two elevator maintenance complaints were filed in 2020, and a tenant safety inspection complaint in March 2025 was also closed without violation. The building's facade maintenance remains an important consideration, with a 2023 violation for failing to file the required FISP Cycle 9B technical report, though this was dismissed in March 2025 upon proof of compliance.
