465 West 46th Street, Manhattan, NY 10036

The 50-unit, 5-story OLD LAW TENEMENT building at 465 West 46th Street in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Clinton 510 Owners Corp., has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, in 2021, there were multiple reported unsanitary conditions including mold, sewage issues, and pest infestations (specifically in Unit 5S), resulting in both Class B and Class C violations related to missing safety devices (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors) and insect infestations.

While these violations were marked as "Closed," the property has faced challenges maintaining compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, receiving multiple violations in 2022-2023 for failure to file proper documentation, with associated penalties ranging from $2,500 to $6,250. The building has had recurring issues with pests and mold, as evidenced by numerous 311 complaints and HPD inspections between 2019 and 2021, though recent records indicate improved conditions. A review of rodent inspections shows generally passing results since 2022, with the most recent inspection in July 2024 passing as well.

Electrical issues were documented in July 2019 with a power outage incident, and there were construction-related violations in July 2021 for work without proper permits, though these have since been resolved. The most recent bedbug reports from December 2024 show no active infestations or eradication efforts required, suggesting improved pest management. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of responsive management to violations, though with notable delays in addressing certain issues based on the dates of inspection and violation issuance.
