Augrented Insights Report for 440 West 34th Street

440 West 34th Street is a 17-story, 134-unit New Law Tenement building in Chelsea, constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Zachary Bornstein. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed between January and May 2025, including three instances where HPD issued violations requiring the owner to correct the conditions.

The building has also faced significant maintenance challenges in recent years, including violations for non-compliant smoke and carbon monoxide detectors (in Apartment 12D) and heating problems (in Apartments 3F and 16A) identified during inspections in late 2024. The facade of the building underwent repair work between 2020-2021, during which multiple Environmental Control Board violations were issued to the contractor for various safety compliance issues, though most were resolved with penalties totaling $4,250.

The property has maintained a generally good record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the last three filing periods (2022-2025), and rodent inspections from 2010-2024 showing consistent passing results. While there have been several complaints about after-hours work between 2021-2024, and issues with excessive hot water temperatures in multiple apartments, these complaints typically resulted in no violations being warranted upon inspection. The building's management has maintained regular reporting compliance for bedbugs and rodent inspections, though there are active violations related to failure to file certain technical reports and energy efficiency documentation from 2019-2023 that remain unresolved.
