440 West 36th Street, Manhattan, NY 10018
440 West 36th Street is a 6-story, 10-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Chaoyu Huang. The property has experienced multiple maintenance and safety concerns in recent years, with the most pressing issues relating to rodent problems and construction safety. In 2023, there were two rodent-related complaints in June, with subsequent inspections revealing both violations and failed compliance checks, though a recent inspection in October 2024 passed.
The building has been cited multiple times for failing to file required annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2023, though recent filings from 2022-2025 show zero infested units. The building underwent significant construction activity in 2024, which generated numerous complaints and violations regarding sidewalk sheds and construction safety. Multiple Oath Violations were served in February 2024 related to inadequate or defective sidewalk shed conditions, with one active violation related to missing caps on bolts creating potential pedestrian hazards.
There were also concerns about building stability in March 2022, with complaints about building shaking and structural stability, leading to the building being placed under structural monitoring. While many of these violations have since been resolved, including a 2024 ECB violation related to construction equipment maintenance, the building has experienced recurring issues with maintaining proper lighting at the front entrance and various maintenance violations over the years. The property has consistently passed rodent inspections between 2011 and 2022, with the exception of the 2023 inspection that failed for "Other Reasons".
