160 East 102nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10029
160 East 102nd Street is a four-story, eight-unit residential building in East Harlem, owned by Shlomo Alkoby, that has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2024 and into 2025. The building has had nine documented complaints about heat/hot water problems affecting the entire building between December 2024 and March 2025, with four of these complaints occurring in early 2025 alone.
Despite being classified as an emergency by HPD, inspectors often encountered access issues when attempting to verify the conditions. The building has also faced significant safety concerns in the past, particularly in 2020, when multiple violations were issued regarding illegal transient use of a unit (Apartment 3R) which allegedly lacked proper fire safety systems and means of egress, resulting in substantial fines. A defective boiler complaint from 2022 was also documented.
The property has been relatively stable concerning pest and rodent issues in recent years, with no confirmed bedbug infestations reported between 2020 and 2025, and most rodent inspections passing, though there was one failure noted in March 2023. Regular bedbug reporting requirements were previously violated in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024, but compliance has improved, with the most recent report (June 2025) showing no infestation or eradication cases. The building has maintained decent overall compliance with housing maintenance codes in recent years, with the most recent rodent inspection in March 2025 passing, though access issues with HPD inspectors have been a recurring theme in heat-related complaints.
