510 East 117th Street, Manhattan, NY 10035
The 4-unit, 4-story old law tenement building at 510 East 117th Street in East Harlem, owned by 508 East 117 LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there were multiple health and safety violations in 2022 related to an unauthorized conversion to a restaurant and performance space ("RM112 HARLEM") on the first floor, including occupancy issues, inadequate means of egress, and unpermitted construction of internal staircases.
These violations, which included penalties totaling $10,000, were subsequently resolved, though one related violation remains active regarding final inspection requirements from 2023. Recent maintenance concerns include a cluster of building systems issues in late 2024, such as mold problems, water leaks, and electrical deficiencies, particularly affecting the second-floor apartment.
The building has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints from 2021-2022, though inspections indicated these problems were resolved or no violations were found during inspections. While the building has experienced various sanitary and maintenance issues over the years, including pest control matters in 2022 and plumbing concerns, recent rodent inspection results from 2025 and regular pest control reporting indicate improved management of these issues. The property has maintained consistent bedbug control with zero reported infestations in recent years, and 2025 rodent inspection results show compliance with health standards, marking a positive trend in building maintenance.
