340 East 23rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10010

340 East 23rd Street is a 21-story, 207-unit residential building located in Gramercy, constructed in 2007 and currently owned by Philliss Nappi. The building has experienced several notable incidents over the past few years, with the most recent being food establishment complaints in 2025 and 2024 involving rodent issues and food poisoning, though both were eventually closed by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. In 2020, the building had multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions including mold, electrical issues, and window problems, though investigators were unable to access the property for inspection.

The building underwent facade work in 2023, resulting in several Environmental Control Board violations related to scaffolding and construction document compliance, though these were all resolved with no penalties imposed. The property has maintained a consistent record of addressing rodent issues, with regular inspections showing successful outcomes. While there was one reported case of a bedbug infestation in 2018-2019 involving two units that was resolved, subsequent annual bedbug reports from 2019 through 2025 have shown no further infestations.

The building has undergone periodic rodent control measures, with bait applied in multiple instances between 2018 and 2019, and most recent inspections in 2022 and 2025 have resulted in passing grades. During a 2018 inspection, violations were noted regarding the exterior facade and balcony maintenance, particularly concerning concrete conditions on various floors, though these issues appear to have been addressed. The building has maintained annual bedbug reporting compliance since 2018, consistently documenting zero infestations in recent years.
