219 East 116th Street, Manhattan, NY 10029
The three-unit, three-story residential building at 219 East 116th Street in East Harlem, owned by Heejung Kim and constructed in 1910, has experienced several notable events over the past few years. Most concerning is a recent electrical power outage classified as an immediate emergency in June 2025, following multiple electrical wiring complaints in 2023 that were referred to the Department of Transportation.
The building has maintained an active rodent management program, with four consecutive "Passed" inspections in 2024-2025, though there were instances of rat activity noted in 2022 and 2023. Three bedbug reports filed in 2024-2025 indicate no infestations during the 2023-2024 and 2022-2023 reporting periods. The property has a history of various housing maintenance code violations, particularly in 2019 when multiple citations were issued regarding building safety signage requirements, all of which were subsequently addressed.
Of particular note are three consecutive violations between 2019-2021 regarding the failure to submit annual bedbug reports, though all these violations have been addressed. The building has experienced multiple food safety incidents, including a food poisoning complaint in 2023 and a food temperature issue in 2021, both of which were investigated with no violations cited or resulted in administrative closure. Tenants' safety has been verified through regular inspections: four successful rodent inspections in 2024-2025, two compliance inspections in 2023-2024 that noted rat activity, and two tenant safety inspections in 2021-2022 that found no significant violations.
