240 Central Park South, Manhattan, NY 10019
240 Central Park South is a 28-story, 297-unit Class A residential building constructed in 1940, currently owned by Leo Korein. The building has experienced persistent heating and plumbing issues, with multiple heat/hot water complaints in early 2025 (January 8 and 16) affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, and a water supply issue in December 2024. These heating problems appear to be ongoing, with another heating complaint registered in June 2025 as an immediate emergency.
The building has faced significant maintenance challenges, particularly in August 2024, when multiple violations were issued regarding window frame issues in Apartment 6H, involving problems with sashes, counterbalances, and various window panels. The Department of Buildings has an active Local Law 188/17 Compliance Inspections complaint from August 2024. The building underwent substantial work in 2020-2021, generating various Environmental Control Board violations related to construction activities, including failure to provide approved plans, improper site documentation, and electrical work without a permit.
Elevator-related issues were addressed through multiple permits and inspections between 2020-2021, with some violations resolved and penalties paid. Despite these maintenance and compliance challenges, recent bedbug reports (November 2023 - October 2024) show no infestations, and rodent inspections from 2014 to 2020 generally passed, with one instance of rat activity noted in September 2020. The building has received multiple permits in 2022-2024, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvement work, with several plumbing-related permits issued in May 2024.
