142 East 98th Street, Manhattan, NY 10029

142 East 98th Street is a 6-story, 30-unit residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Pavao Tomasovic. The most recent significant incident occurred in December 2024, when a power outage was reported through 311 services, though an HPD inspection could not be completed.

Looking back at previous years, the building had multiple maintenance issues in 2021, including a verified rodent infestation in apartment 27 (since resolved), and various complaints related to unsanitary conditions, including pests and mold, though many of these investigations resulted in no violations being found. The building also experienced several maintenance issues in July 2021, including problems with paint/plaster work, appliance functionality, door/window integrity, and electrical systems, though most of these complaints were closed without violations. The property has demonstrated an encouraging pattern of compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2017 through 2025, indicating effective pest management practices.

Importantly, the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations in the last five annual reporting periods (2020-2024), with the most recent reports from 2025 and 2024 showing no infested units. While there have been various maintenance issues reported over the years, the majority have been addressed through inspections and repairs, with specific violations being effectively resolved, such as those related to door issues in apartment 27 which were certified as resolved in November 2021. The building's overall maintenance record suggests ongoing attention to building systems and resident concerns, though prospective tenants should note the most recent power outage incident in 2024.
