186 East 104th Street, Manhattan, NY 10029

186 East 104th Street is a 5-story, 9-unit "New Law" tenement building located in East Harlem, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Angie Jaramillo. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple heat and hot water complaints in both October 2023 (entire building) and March 2025 (apartment-specific). In March 2025, the property faced several infrastructure challenges, including slow plumbing leaks, radiator problems, and multiple reports of unsanitary conditions relating to pests, for which violations were issued.

An emergency heat and hot water complaint was filed but not fully investigated due to access issues. The building's windows reportedly had structural concerns in March 2025, though HPD inspections found no violations in this case. The property has a documented history of rodent-related issues, with the most recent inspections in 2025 showing generally passed inspections, following a pattern of rat activity and bait application between 2022-2023.

Bedbug reporting compliance appears to be maintained, with the most recent filings (2024) showing no infestations. An outstanding violation exists regarding the failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection report, issued in April 2023 and currently active as of April 2025. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections (2023-2025), it experienced a spike in complaints during March 2025, including heat, plumbing, pest issues, and water leaks, suggesting ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's 311 service history shows a mixture of resolved and unresolvable complaints, with some requiring tenants to refile if problems persisted after inspection.
