413 East 90th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128

The five-story, 10-unit old law tenement building at 413 East 90th Street, owned by Dennis McCarthy and built in 1920, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges in recent years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing rodent issue, with multiple inspections and reports of rat activity throughout 2023 and 2024, though recent inspections in October and December 2024 passed.

The building has also faced consistent heat and hot water problems, with emergency complaints recorded in 2019-2020 and again in 2022, though these issues appear to have been resolved based on subsequent inspections and tenant reports. Unsanitary garbage storage conditions have been a recurring theme, with violations documented in 2021, 2022, and most recently in July 2023, when a violation was issued for inadequate waste receptacles. More recent inspections show some improvement in certain areas, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three filing periods (2021-2024), and the building currently passes rodent inspections, though it previously failed for other reasons in early 2023.

The property has active violations related to garbage storage (as of July 2023) and pending issues from 2021 involving maintenance matters in apartment 2E, including ceiling repair and faucet leaks. Historical records also indicate a gas utility inspection in 2019, though the inspector was unable to gain access. While the building has a history of various maintenance issues, recent data suggests some progress in addressing these concerns, particularly with more recent successful inspections and improved reporting.
