336 West End Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10023

336 West End Avenue is a 20-story, 103-unit residential building constructed in 1932 and currently owned by Charles Benda. The building has undergone several significant events over the past few years, with the most pressing issues being three active complaints regarding Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections as of September 2024. In May 2025, a complaint about a sidewalk shed was inspected and found not to warrant any violations.

In 2024, there was a construction safety compliance incident that resulted in a stop work order, though this was fully rescinded within two days. The building's maintenance records show generally good upkeep, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past seven years and only one instance of rat activity noted during rodent inspections in August 2023, which was promptly addressed. The building has experienced some regulatory challenges, including a 2022 violation for failing to file a required energy benchmarking report, though this was confirmed as submitted by October 2022.

An Environmental Control Board violation from May 2024 related to construction work involved an improperly installed outrigger beam, though this was resolved with no penalties. The property has maintained consistent permit activity between 2015 and 2021, with multiple permits issued for electrical and plumbing work, suggesting regular maintenance and infrastructure updates. Recent rodent inspections from 2024 and 2023 passed, indicating effective pest management, and the building has consistently reported zero bedbug incidents in its mandatory annual filings. While there have been several complaints and violations, most have been resolved promptly and do not appear to indicate any persistent issues affecting resident safety or comfort.
