521 East 88th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128

The five-story, 16-unit Old Law Tenement at 521 East 88th Street on the Upper East Side, built in 1920 and currently owned by William Yulinsky, has maintained a relatively stable record over the past several years. Most notably, there was a recent Department of Buildings violation in June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2020 external low pressure inspection, though this violation was dismissed within a month of issuance.

The building has documented consistent pest management practices, with no bedbug infestations reported over the past seven years (2019-2025), as evidenced by annual filings showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. While rodent management has required ongoing attention, with bait applications recorded in 2021-2022, inspections conducted between 2016 and 2022 generally resulted in passing grades. The most recent maintenance activity on record was a permit issuance in May 2019, though the specific nature of this work is not detailed in the available data.

The building's recent history shows a pattern of regular pest management and general maintenance compliance, while the most significant recent issue (the 2023 violation) was promptly resolved. The consistent lack of bedbug infestations over multiple reporting periods indicates effective building management practices in this regard. The presence of bait applications for rodent control suggests ongoing monitoring and response to this particular maintenance challenge, though the building has passed multiple inspections related to both initial and bait inspections between 2016-2022.
