158 East 112th Street, Manhattan, NY 10029

158 East 112th Street is a four-story, 8-unit residential building in East Harlem, owned by Steve Zervoudis and built in 1910. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with three emergency complaints filed in 2024-2025 (April, December, and July), and six similar complaints between 2019-2020.

A particularly concerning set of violations was issued in July 2024 for Apartment 4B, including pest infestations (mice and roaches), inadequate hot water supply, and multiple safety issues such as defective self-closing doors and restricted access to the heating system. The building has undergone several inspections for rodent activity, with the most recent showing rat activity in July 2025.

There are open violations related to building management including an unfiled 2021 external low-pressure inspection and requirements to maintain proper building registration signs and heating system access notices. Safety systems have shown various compliance issues, with a significant 2022 violation for defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 1A, though these were reported as corrected in early 2023. While the bedbug report shows zero infestations in recent years, the building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services and environmental conditions, including multiple periods requiring bait application for pest control throughout 2023.
