235 East 49th Street, Manhattan, NY 10017

235 East 49th Street is a 13-story, 75-unit residential building constructed in 1927 and currently owned by Nina Kulmala. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety-related events in recent years, most notably an active unsafe façade notification as of October 2023, which requires immediate attention under Local Law 11/98 regulations.

In late 2019, there was a DOHMH investigation related to drinking water where no health code violations or hazards were found. The building has a relatively clean pest control record, with no reported instances of bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods (2020-2025), and passed a recent rodent inspection in February 2025. The building's Department of Buildings records show a mix of violations and inspections over the past several years.

There are currently two active violations from 2020 that remain unresolved, and the building experienced issues in 2014 with two failed rodent inspections before returning to compliance in 2015. A series of emergency work permits were issued in 2019, suggesting there were necessary repairs or maintenance work carried out during that period. The building has maintained an overall good record for pest control, with multiple passes on rodent inspections between 2010 and 2019, though there was a notable period of concern in 2014 that appears to have been addressed.
