446 West 38th Street, Manhattan, NY 10018

446 West 38th Street is a 5-story, 4-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Hell's Kitchen and owned by Marek Kiyashka. Built in 1900, the property has experienced several notable events in recent years that warrant attention.

In June 2020, multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions (mold), safety issues (carbon monoxide detector), water leaks (slow leak), and window frame problems; however, inspections were not completed as access was not granted, leading to closed but unresolved complaints. The building received two Class A violations in 2021 and 2023 for failing to file annual bedbug reports, though subsequent filings from 2021 through 2024 show no reported bedbug infestations or related issues. A Class B violation from 2018 regarding inadequate entrance lighting remains open as of 2023.

The property has maintained a clean record in recent rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2010 through 2024, with the most recent passing inspection occurring in October 2024. The building's maintenance and violation history indicates some ongoing compliance issues, particularly regarding bedbug reporting and lighting requirements, though the lack of reported infestations and recent rodent control success suggests effective management of these concerns. While the June 2020 complaints raised multiple potential habitability concerns, the inability of inspectors to gain access limits definitive conclusions about these issues' current status or resolution.
