182 East 108th Street, Manhattan, NY 10029

182 East 108th Street is a 4-story, 8-unit old-law tenement building in East Harlem, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Derek Cohn. The building has faced several significant maintenance challenges in recent years, with the most notable issues documented in early 2023 including violations for pests, mold, water leaks, and wall conditions in Apartment 4W.

Specifically, HPD inspections in March 2023 revealed roach infestation, mold on bathtub grout, leaky bathroom faucets, and peeling paint in multiple rooms and the kitchen, with some violations still marked as open. The property has experienced recurring rodent activity, with multiple inspections in 2025 (January, May, June) confirming rat presence, though some earlier inspections (2024) had passed.

While the building has maintained a zero-tolerance record for bedbugs in recent years, with no infested units reported in the annual filings from 2020 to 2024, it continues to struggle with maintenance issues as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests throughout 2022-2023. These requests, which include complaints about flooring, stairs, water leaks, mold, and unsanitary conditions, were mostly resolved through inspections, though some conditions remained open as of early 2023. The building's historical data shows a consistent pattern of maintenance challenges through the years, with particular concern regarding the ongoing rodent issues and periodic moisture-related problems.
