140 East 46th Street, Manhattan, NY 10017
140 East 46th Street is a 12-story, 195-unit residential building constructed in 1924, currently owned by Jane Goldman. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed between late 2022 and 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, some marked as emergencies. In early 2025, there was a rat sighting reported, leading to a health department inspection that found violations requiring follow-up examinations.
The building has an active ECB violation from April 2024 regarding failure to submit a required Cycle 9B critical examination report ($1,250 penalty). Previous significant violations included issues with illegal transient use of apartment #11G in 2020, which resulted in multiple fines totaling $7,500, though these were later marked as resolved. The property has undergone multiple housing maintenance inspections with varying results, including three bedbug reports from 2022-2024 showing one infested unit in 2023-2024, and inspections showing generally passed rodent control compliance, with the most recent initial inspection in January 2025 indicating rat activity. The building has faced several safety and maintenance issues over the years, including emergency violations for mold, fire escape safety, and various maintenance concerns in 2021.
Multiple complaints were filed regarding illegal hotel room usage in 2019-2020, and various building system inspections and repairs have been documented. Recent Department of Buildings complaints in 2025 indicated concerns about debris and potential falling hazards, though inspections found no violations. The property has a history of heat and hot water system issues dating back to 2020, with various emergency complaints filed through 2024. While many past violations have been addressed and closed, there appears to be a pattern of recurring maintenance and system-related issues that affect resident comfort and safety.
