334 West 47th Street, Manhattan, NY 10036
The 12-unit, 5-story tenement building at 334 West 47th Street in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Maxine Gilbert and constructed in 1920, has experienced several maintenance and regulatory issues over recent years. Most notably, as of July 2025, there is an active rodent-related violation regarding inadequate bathroom ventilation in apartment 2C, which was cited in September 2024. The building has recurring water-related issues, with multiple complaints about slow leaks in 2023-2024, and sanitation concerns including ventilation system problems in September 2024.
Following a significant period of non-compliance, the building completed its bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 through 2024, showing no infestations during these periods. The building has passed most recent rodent inspections, though it failed in July 2024 and January 2025. The property has a history of unauthorized modifications, with multiple illegal conversion complaints between 2018 and 2024, though inspections were often unable to gain access.
There were also several violations related to building systems and maintenance, including heat/hot water issues in late 2022, security concerns with vestibule doors in 2023-2024, and various interior maintenance matters such as paint/plaster and ceiling problems in multiple units. While the building has had several citations for failing to maintain proper ventilation and address water-related issues, many violations from 2018-2021 regarding illegal alterations and occupancy have been resolved, typically by dismissals or corrections. The most recent inspections suggest improved compliance with rodent control, though concerns about ventilation and water issues persist.
