140 East 34th Street, Manhattan, NY 10016

The five-story residential building at 140 East 34th Street in Kips Bay, owned by David Bernhardt, has maintained a generally positive record over the past several years despite some recurring issues. Built in 1910 and featuring 7 units, this formerly converted Class A building has demonstrated consistent compliance with rodent inspections, having passed all eight inspections conducted since 2010, with the most recent passing inspection occurring in March 2025.

The building's management has also maintained an effective response to pest control issues, as evidenced by clean bedbug reports for the past seven consecutive filing periods from 2019 through 2024, with no reported infestations or extermination activities. However, the property has experienced three documented complaints regarding rodent/insect/garbage issues in food establishments between 2022 and 2024, all of which were closed after being addressed, with the most recent complaint originating in October 2023 and closing in June 2024.

These complaints were handled by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH). While these service requests represent environmental concerns, it's notable that they have been appropriately addressed and closed through official channels. The building's overall inspection record, particularly in terms of rodent management and pest control, suggests active maintenance of residential standards, with the most recent rodent inspection showing continued compliance with health regulations.
