343 West 46th Street, Manhattan, NY 10036

The three-unit, three-story building at 343 West 46th Street in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Micha Kalbo, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with heat and hot water between January 2025 and January 2025, with multiple emergency service requests filed, though some complaints were closed as duplicates or without access being granted for inspection.

The building has also faced challenges with bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations recorded in 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021 all related to the failure to file required annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). In addition to these issues, there were several reports of illegal pets in late 2022, though at least one investigation conducted on December 8, 2022, found no violations. The property has maintained a generally positive record when it comes to pest control, passing all rodent inspections conducted between 2016 and 2024, including the most recent July 2024 inspection.

The building's only documented pandemic-related violation was a customer vaccine mandate non-compliance issue from December 2021, which was promptly addressed. A permit for unknown alterations or work was issued on June 3, 2022. While the property has maintained compliance in several areas, the recurring heating issues and bedbug reporting violations are worth noting, though it's important to recognize that some service requests were closed without verification of the issues being fully resolved.
