331 East 108th Street, Manhattan, NY 10029
331 East 108th Street is a 6-story New Law Tenement building in East Harlem, containing 29 units and constructed in 1900, currently owned by Arik Lifshitz. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple heat/hot water complaints filed in 2024-2025, including two in January 2025 (one affecting the entire building and another in an individual apartment) and a notable cluster of problems in late 2024 involving violations for inadequate heat supplies and defective smoke/carbon monoxide detectors in apartments 6A and 6B.
The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with numerous complaints about single-device operation and no alternate service between 2023-2025, though inspections generally found no violations. The building's maintenance history shows several significant issues, including a pattern of self-closing door violations throughout 2024-2025 in various locations, and four environmental control board violations from 2019 regarding building wall maintenance and stucco disrepair, with penalties totaling over $8,000.
Recent inspections have shown improvements, with passed rodent inspections in 2023-2025 and no bedbug infestations reported in the last six filing periods. While the building has maintained good overall sanitation standards as evidenced by recent passing rodent inspections, the ongoing heating system reliability issues and periodic elevator service problems remain notable concerns for resident comfort and convenience.
