346 East 15th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

The 4-story, 8-unit tenement building at 346 East 15th Street in Gramercy, owned by David Sassouni, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with particular challenges noted in 2022. During that year, multiple complaints were logged regarding appliance problems, specifically concerning refrigeration issues in May and August, which resulted in violations.

There were also three separate reports of power outages on May 31, 2022, which were classified as immediate emergencies. Additional maintenance issues included problems with an electric/gas range, a bell/buzzer/intercom system, and a water supply issue, though most of these complaints were closed without violations being issued. The building has had ongoing rodent activity concerns, with inspections in 2024 showing rat activity in April, August, and November, though it recently passed inspections in February 2025.

The property has also faced challenges with its public areas, including multiple violations related to the first-story public hall requiring painting and fire-retardant material repairs, though many of these have been resolved. Recent bedbug reports from 2022 and 2024 show no infested units, and the most recent rodent inspections in 2025 have passed, suggesting some improvement in pest management. The building's violations history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing issues, with particular attention needed for the public areas and some persistent appliance-related complaints.
