340 East 51st Street, Manhattan, NY 10022
340 East 51st Street is a 12-story, 115-unit residential building constructed in 1965, currently managed by owner Adam Grushko. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in 2025, including an open fire escape safety complaint (May 2025), heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building (May 2025), and multiple indoor air quality concerns, particularly related to ventilation and sewage odors (March-May 2025). Earlier complaints from 2025 also noted problems with mold (March 2025), and various building features including walls, cabinets, and flooring were all subject to HPD inspections, with some violations documented.
The building has a history of heat and hot water issues, with similar complaints recorded in 2020, 2021, and 2022, suggesting a recurring maintenance problem with this essential service. The property has undergone several regulatory inspections regarding tenant safety and potential illegal hotel activity between 2018-2021, though most inspections found either no violations or resulted in complaints being unsubstantiated. An Environmental Control Board violation from 2020 cited inadequate tenant protection plans during construction work.
While there have been two documented cases of bedbug infestation (2020 and 2024), both were reportedly eradicated. Recent rodent inspections in 2024 showed mixed results, with rat activity noted in late 2024, though subsequent inspections passed with no active issues. The building has maintained compliance with various permit requirements, with multiple permits issued between March and September 2020 for exterior work. The recent spate of 2025 complaints, particularly regarding critical systems like heat/hot water and safety features like fire escapes, suggests these are ongoing concerns that may impact resident comfort and safety.
