146 East 35th Street, Manhattan, NY 10016

146 East 35th Street is a 5-story, 20-unit residential building located in Murray Hill, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Mark Scharfman. The building has faced recurrent maintenance issues in recent years, with the most recent heating and hot water complaint in January 2025, and an ongoing violation identified in April 2023 concerning motion sensors in ceiling light fixtures in the public halls across multiple floors.

In 2022, there were documented issues with pests (unsanitary conditions) and a water leak, though these complaints were either closed or resulted in no violations being issued. The building underwent significant plumbing modifications in 2018, which led to multiple violations regarding gas piping systems and sprinkler installations, though these were subsequently resolved.

The property has maintained a generally good track record for pest control and rodent inspections, with zero confirmed cases of bedbugs reported in the last five annual filings (2020-2024) and consistently passing rodent inspections dating back to at least 2010. Recent housing maintenance code violations in 2023 highlighted various maintenance issues, including a requirement to repair defective fire retardant material at the roof bulkhead ceiling and address concerns about trash cans stored near stairs in the public hall. While there have been multiple housing maintenance code violations over the years, most have been addressed through proper certification, with the exception of a few persistent open violations related to light fixture motion sensors in public areas as of April 2023.
