170 East 100th Street, Manhattan, NY 10029

The 5-story, 10-unit building at 170 East 100th Street in East Harlem, owned by Jerome Mallilin, has experienced ongoing pest management challenges over the past few years. Most recently, in July 2023, there were confirmed violations of rodent and pest problems, specifically involving mice and roaches in apartment 3F. The building has a documented history of pest issues, with violations noted in August 2021 as well. While the property has shown compliance in rodent inspections as of April 2025, there have been repeated instances of rat activity, with the most recent being noted in March 2025.

The building, constructed in 1910, has also faced several maintenance challenges that have required attention. In 2021, multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding doors, including issues with the dumbwaiter door and building entrance doors. Safety equipment concerns were documented in September 2021, including missing smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in apartment 3F. More recent issues include multiple open violations regarding external low-pressure inspections from 2019 through 2024, suggesting potential neglect of safety equipment maintenance.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing violations, though with some recurring issues, particularly regarding pest management. The most recent bedbug reports from 2024-2025 show no infestations, and the building has consistently filed its annual reports as required since 2021. However, the property has experienced various infrastructure issues, including electrical problems (as documented in July 2021) and plumbing concerns, though most of these have been resolved through inspection processes. While recent inspections have shown improvements in pest control and building maintenance, the frequency of violations and recurring nature of some issues suggest ongoing management challenges.
