140 Thompson Street, Manhattan, NY 10012
140 Thompson Street is a 6-story, 30-unit residential building located in SoHo, built in 1885 and currently owned by Matthew Dicker. The building has experienced numerous construction-related issues in recent years, with the most concerning being an active ECB violation from May 2024 regarding illegal occupancy at roof level, where four fully enclosed and occupied structures were created above the building's official height.
The property has also been subject to multiple complaints about unauthorized work, including illegal plumbing work and after-hours construction in 2024, and several complaints about work done contrary to stop work orders in 2023. There are currently two active DOB violations from 2023-2024: one concerning an immediately hazardous ECB violation that remains uncorrected, and another regarding a borough commissioner stop work order. Historical records show persistent regulatory challenges, including a 2022 violation related to inadequate plans for construction work, and a 2018 violation involving false statements in a permit application.
Bedbug inspections from 2019 through 2024 have consistently reported zero infested units, suggesting effective pest management, while recent rodent inspections in 2025, 2024, and 2023 have passed. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and renovation work, with several permits issued between 2018 and 2021 for various construction and plumbing projects. Recent inspection records indicate ongoing construction activities, though many complaints filed in 2023-2024 resulted in no violations being found at the time of inspection, except for some where stop work orders were partially rescinded.
