140 East 30th Street, Manhattan, NY 10016

The 7-unit, 4-story building at 140 East 30th Street in Kips Bay, owned by Bernard Zagdanski, has experienced several significant issues in recent years, most notably concerning its heating system and pest management compliance. In April 2025, there were complaints about heat and hot water issues, though these were reportedly resolved promptly.

The building has a concerning pattern of failing to submit required Annual Bedbug Reports to HPD over multiple years between 2021 and 2024, resulting in open class A violations. In 2021, there was a notable incident involving the boiler system, where a defective/inoperative heating system led to a penalty of $1,562 for not having a visible boiler sign through the building's front door, although this violation was resolved.

The property has maintained generally good compliance with rodent inspections over the years, with most inspections between 2010 and 2025 showing no significant rodent activity, though a rat activity issue was noted in April 2025. The building's age (constructed in 1900) and its classification as "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A" suggest it has undergone some form of conversion to its current usage, though specific details of this conversion are not provided in the data. The recent heating system issues and persistent bedbug reporting non-compliance are the most concerning aspects of the building's recent history, while the rodent inspection results indicate relatively good pest management overall.
