315 West 36th Street, Manhattan, NY 10018
The 17-story converted old law tenement building at 315 West 36th Street in Hell's Kitchen, owned by John Challice, has experienced several notable events and violations in recent years. Most concerning are the four food poisoning complaints reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene between February and December 2022, though each was determined to be isolated incidents.
The building has also faced recurring issues with energy efficiency compliance, with multiple violations in 2024 for failing to file required benchmarking reports and display energy efficiency scores, which remain active. Between 2020 and 2021, there were four complaints regarding vaccine mandate non-compliance, specifically related to customer proof of vaccination verification. The building has a history of various safety and maintenance concerns, including a December 2020 heat and hot water complaint that inspectors could not verify due to access issues, and multiple building-wide violations regarding automatic sprinkler system installation requirements.
Recent inspection records show good pest control maintenance, with the most recent rodent inspection in October 2024 passing, and no bedbug infestations reported in the past seven years. Accessibility and egress concerns have been documented, with a January 2025 complaint about locked or blocked egress points, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. The property has undergone regular permitting activity, with multiple permits issued between 2018 and 2020 for various work, including plumbing and electrical upgrades.
