148 East 46th Street, Manhattan, NY 10017
The 4-unit, 4-story building at 148 East 46th Street in Midtown, owned by Arif Hossain, has demonstrated significant and recurring maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems. Between April and June 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints and violations related to heat and hot water, with inspections confirming inadequate service and resulting in open violations.
The building has persistent problems with heat and hot water service, as evidenced by over 27 documented complaints and violations between 2022 and 2025. The property has also faced regulatory non-compliance issues, receiving multiple violations for failure to file required external low-pressure inspections between 2019 and 2024, and there are three active open violations regarding annual bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 to 2024. Additional historical context shows past safety and maintenance concerns, including various code violation notices in 2018 related to fire safety equipment, boiler maintenance, and other building systems.
The building has a documented history of rodent activity, with inspections showing rat activity from 2022 to 2025, though the most recent inspection in September 2022 passed. While some historical violations have been resolved, the recurring nature of heat and hot water service issues, along with the current unresolved violations regarding bedbug reporting and external low-pressure inspections, suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's permitted work records from 2018 show several completed permits for various maintenance tasks, though specific details about these works are not provided in the available data.
