344 West 47th Street, Manhattan, NY 10036

344 West 47th Street is a 5-story, 10-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Hell's Kitchen, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Michael Besen. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past five years (2020-2025) according to official records.

While the property has generally passed rodent inspections consistently from 2017 through 2025, there was one notable failure in June 2021, though it subsequently passed during the following compliance inspection in November 2021. The building experienced a flooring issue in September 2019, specifically a defective wood floor in the kitchen of apartment 4W, which resulted in Housing Preservation and Development involvement and the issuance of violations, though these appeared to have been resolved shortly thereafter.

The property has maintained a relatively clean record in recent years, with no significant complaints or violations reported since the 2019 flooring issue. Annual bedbug reports have shown zero infested or eradicated units since at least 2021, indicating effective pest management. The building's regular inspection schedule, particularly for rodent control, has demonstrated ongoing compliance with health and safety standards, and the prompt resolution of the 2019 flooring issue suggests responsive management to maintenance concerns.
