340 East 24th Street, Manhattan, NY 10010

The 14-story residential building at 340 East 24th Street in Kips Bay, owned by Lesley Lisser and constructed in 2015, has recently experienced significant maintenance issues, particularly in early 2025. In February 2025, there were multiple concerning complaints across several systems, including plumbing (water supply), cooking gas, electrical (power outage), and heat/hot water throughout the entire building. Notably, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to access apartments for inspections related to these complaints.

The building had similar heat/hot water issues reported in January 2025, which HPD also couldn't inspect due to access problems. In addition to these service requests, there was a general complaint about missing signage in February 2025 that remains open. Looking at the building's history since construction, there have been periodic violations and maintenance issues.

In 2024, a violation was issued for failure to file the 2023 external low-pressure inspection, though this was dismissed in February 2025. Previous violations include a failure to display energy efficiency score/grade in 2021 (dismissed) and multiple violations related to elevator issues in 2020-2022, which were resolved. A notable inspection was conducted in 2019 related to heat/hot water issues, though no violations were found. The building's systems have shown recurring problems, particularly with heat and hot water, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges.
