358 West 15th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

358 West 15th Street is a 6-story, 36-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1911, currently owned by Gerard Devito. The building has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years, with the most recent being a broken window guard reported in July 2024 that resulted in both an A-class open violation and a C-class closed violation requiring replacement.

There have been multiple heat and hot water-related complaints between 2022 and 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, though most were resolved through inspections. The building's first floor apartment (Apartment 1) has particularly notable ongoing maintenance issues as of July 2024, with several open violations including problems with the bathtub's porcelain enamel glaze, wall paint requirements, and various ceiling and wall maintenance needs.

The property has undergone regular inspections for bedbugs and rodents, with consistent reports showing no bedbug infestations since 2019 and passing rodent inspections in 2024, 2019, and multiple years prior. Several non-emergency issues were documented in 2022, including problems with plumbing (bathtub/shower), pest control, paint/plaster conditions, and door/window maintenance, many of which resulted in violations. Historical records show an active pattern of maintenance requests and inspections, with the most recent violations primarily centered around Apartment 1's maintenance needs and safety compliance issues.
