211 East 122nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10035
The 35-story residential building at 211 East 122nd Street in East Harlem, owned by Cesar Ortiz and constructed in 1974, has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues over the past two years, particularly in 2025. Most recently, between May and June 2025, there were multiple housing maintenance complaints regarding doors, windows, ventilation systems, mold, and heat/hot water issues, with several inspections unable to be completed due to lack of access. In late 2024, violations were recorded for apartments 1206 and 2302, including plumbing issues, roach infestations, and problems with bathroom fixtures.
The building has also faced significant elevator-related concerns, with multiple complaints throughout 2023-2024 resulting in violations and inspections showing inadequate maintenance of elevator systems. The property has a concerning history of environmental and safety compliance issues. In 2024, there was an active violation regarding broken window panes on the west and east elevations, and previous complaints about elevator safety and maintenance led to multiple ECB violations with penalties.
The building's infestation history shows recurring issues with bedbugs and rodent activity between 2019 and 2024, though recent reports suggest some success in eradication efforts. Additional complaints in 2025 included problems with doors, window frames, and ventilation systems, while previous years' violations included issues with sidewalk shed safety and lighting. While some older violations have been resolved, several recent complaints indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding building access for inspections and timely repairs.
