1340 Avenue Of The Amer, Manhattan, NY 10019
1340 Avenue of the Americas is a 36-story, 1926-class B building located in Midtown, currently owned by Michael Sheh. The property has faced several significant safety and compliance issues in recent years, most notably regarding its facade. As of April 2023, the building received an "Unsafe" designation under LL11/98 due to facade concerns, resulting in a $10,000 fine for failing to implement required safety measures like sidewalk sheds and netting.
There are also active violations related to energy benchmarking requirements as of August 2024. The building's health and safety record shows regular inspections for rodent control, with all recent inspections (including December 2023 and August 2023) passing successfully. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations since 2019, with no units reported as infested or requiring eradication in the past five reporting periods.
The property has experienced various health department interactions over the years, including multiple food temperature complaints in late 2024 and several food poisoning incidents, though the most recent inspections did not reveal violations. Historical violations related to annual bedbug report filings were documented between 2021 and 2023, though no recent filings have shown infestations. The building has undergone various permitted work, with permits issued for elevator (EQ) and emergency work (EW) in 2019 and 2020, respectively, indicating ongoing maintenance and infrastructure management. Recent complaints regarding mobile food vendors and a past vaccine mandate non-compliance incident suggest some level of sensitivity regarding health and safety protocols, though these issues appear to be isolated and not directly related to building operations.
