400 3rd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10016
The 16-story, 30-unit residential building at 400 3rd Avenue in Kips Bay, owned by Marc Altheim and constructed in 2004, has experienced persistent heating issues over the past two years, with eight documented heat/hot water complaints between November 2023 and December 2024, including both entire building and apartment-specific incidents. The building has also faced various maintenance challenges in 2025, with three open complaints regarding flooring/stairs issues and electrical outlets/switches filed in June 2025, as well as previous complaints about flooring, unsanitary conditions, and multiple repairs needed in Apartment 2B, including issues with doors, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide devices.
The property has undergone regular safety inspections, with rodent inspections in 2016, 2017, 2018, and most recently in April 2025 showing compliance. A significant safety concern was addressed in 2022 when a device preventing a door from self-closing was found on the laundry room door.
The building's elevator system was cited for a violation in 2021 for being out of service, though this was resolved. All previous bedbug reports from 2019 to 2024 show zero infested units, indicating effective pest management. While the building's maintenance history shows regular inspections and prompt attention to various issues, the recurring heating problems and recent flooring and electrical complaints warrant attention.
