328 East 48th Street, Manhattan, NY 10017

328 East 48th Street is a 5-story, 15-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Midtown, built in 1900 and currently owned by Charles Rothschild. The building has experienced some recent maintenance issues, with water leak and mold complaints filed in August 2024 that were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, though no violations were found.

In April 2024, two Class C violations were issued regarding doors preventing self-closing at both the vestibule and building entrance, which were certified as corrected in September 2024. The building has maintained consistent bedbug monitoring compliance, with reports from 2022-2024 showing zero infested units and no recorded infestations throughout this period. There have been some historical violations worth noting: a Class B violation from 2008 for defective wood floor repair in apartment 1B, and a Class A violation from 1995 for plaster and paint issues in the same apartment, both of which are expected to be certified as corrected by December 2024.

The building has undergone regular rodent inspections in recent years, passing the most recent compliance inspection in March 2025, though it recorded a failed initial inspection in February 2025 for unspecified reasons. Previous rodent inspections dating back to 2010 had all resulted in passing grades. While the property has experienced some maintenance issues, particularly in recent years, the building has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and maintained generally good rodent control practices overall.
