349 Avenue Of The Amer, Manhattan, NY 10014

The property at 349 Avenue of the Americas in the West Village is a four-story, three-unit building constructed in 1848, currently owned by Alexander Xenopoulos. The building has maintained a generally good safety and maintenance record over the past several years, though recent incidents warrant attention.

In September 2023, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene investigated two tattooing-related complaints involving unlicensed artists and improper consent forms, though the specific outcomes of these inspections were not detailed beyond the referral to contact the Health Department for inspection results. Earlier in 2023, there was an emergency door-related complaint that was promptly resolved without any violations being issued. The building had a bedbug violation notice issued in April 2021 regarding the failure to file an annual report; however, subsequent yearly filings from 2020 through the present (most recently December 2024) show zero infestation cases, indicating compliance with reporting requirements and successful pest management.

The property has undergone regular rodent inspections between 2016 and 2025, all of which have passed, demonstrating effective pest control measures. The building's recent history shows no major safety violations or maintenance issues beyond the previously mentioned tattooing complaints and door repair incident. The consistent annual bedbug reporting with no documented infestations since 2020, coupled with successful rodent inspections, suggests that the building is generally well-maintained in terms of basic health and safety standards.
