515 East 79th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075

The 30-story, 163-unit residential building at 515 East 79th Street, owned by Eileen Cannon, was constructed in 1981 and is currently classified as a Commercial Altered Class A property. The building's records from 2018 to 2025 indicate several notable events, with recent concerns including a rodent sighting in October 2023 that resulted in Health Department violations and required follow-up inspections. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record from 2019 to present, with no reported infestations.

The building experienced some structural concerns in recent years, notably a 2022 vacate order regarding cracked and unstable brickwork on the neighboring building's east elevation. Between 2020-2022, there were multiple environmental control board violations related to unsafe sidewalk shed conditions during facade restoration work, including a $2,400 penalty for pedestrian protection non-compliance, though this was subsequently resolved. The Department of Buildings records show regular maintenance and construction activity, with multiple work permits issued between 2018 and 2023, including three electrical work permits in the last two years.

The building's environmental inspection history shows a generally positive pattern, with passed rodent inspections in 2015-2022, though with the exception of the October 2023 initial inspection. The property has faced several privately owned public space compliance complaints between 2018-2025, all of which were closed with no violations warranted at the time of inspection. An open Class C housing maintenance violation from 2018 remains on record, concerning the missing notice of heating system access. The building's recent history shows consistent maintenance activity through permitted work, though the recent rodent violations and previous facade-related issues suggest ongoing attention is required to address building envelope and pest management systems.
