222 East 40th Street, Manhattan, NY 10016
The 36-story, 372-unit building at 222 East 40th Street in Murray Hill, owned by Winston Fisher, has experienced recurring heating system issues in late 2024, with multiple 311 complaints about lack of heat and hot water in the entire building in October and November, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. The building has a significant history of smoking-related complaints, particularly during 2023-2024, with several violations documented regarding smoking in prohibited areas.
Multiple maintenance issues were addressed in early 2024, including plumbing problems (basins/sinks), paint/plaster work, and ventilation system concerns, all of which were classified as non-emergency. The building's maintenance history shows three separate units requiring various repairs in 2021, including issues with kitchen cabinets, walls, ceilings, and plumbing fixtures. There have been several instances of illegal hotel room complaints between 2018 and 2025, though inspections generally found no violations at the time.
More recently, in 2023-2024, multiple DOB violations were issued regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections, though these were dismissed. Bedbug reports show a pattern of infestations in recent years, with the most recent filings in late 2024 and late 2023 indicating two units affected each time, though most units were successfully eradicated. Rodent inspections from 2020 through 2025 have consistently passed, indicating effective pest management in that regard.
