312 East 116th Street, Manhattan, NY 10029
The five-story, 20-unit apartment building at 312 East 116th Street in East Harlem, built in 1920 and currently owned by Mark Neiman, has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues over recent years, particularly in 2024-2025. The property has ongoing rodent problems, with multiple DOHMH reports and inspections from March 2025 continuing to show rat activity, despite some inspections passing and the property being located in the NYC Rat Portal system. There are several open Housing Maintenance Code complaints from April 2025 concerning various building systems, including issues with the bell/buzzer/intercom system, plumbing (radiator), wall paint/plaster, ventilation system, and pest control.
The building's most recent violations record from February 2024 includes a notable fire safety concern in Apartment 3A regarding obstructing bars or unlawful gates, though this was certified as corrected by April 2024. The property has a history of maintenance challenges affecting resident comfort and safety. Previous violations (2022-2023) included problems with hot water supply, electrical wiring, and structural issues in Apartment 3A, which is particularly concerning given its classification as a "New Law Tenement".
While the building has demonstrated some compliance with rodent inspections, recent 311 service requests from 2025 show persistent pest management issues. However, it's worth noting that the bedbug reporting history from 2022 to 2024 shows zero reported cases, indicating successful management of this particular pest type. The only building permit on record in the last several years was issued in August 2018 for an unspecified exterior work project.
