330 East 52nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10022

The 6-story, 40-unit building at 330 East 52nd Street, owned by Ramin Shalom and constructed in 1927, has faced several maintenance challenges in recent years. Most notably, in April 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding unsanitary conditions (sewage), plumbing issues (bathtub/shower), and ceiling problems, though inspections found no violations. The building has experienced recurring water-related issues, with documented complaints in 2024-2025 about leaks with varying severity, including heavy flow and damp spots.

Security concerns were raised in 2024 regarding self-closing doors at both the building entrance and vestibule, though these violations were subsequently closed. A significant cluster of violations in late 2024 involved Unit 37, including problems with ceiling paint/plaster, a water leak, and a pest infestation (roaches), with one violation still listed as open. The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections from 2018 through early 2025, with only one instance of rat activity noted in December 2022.

The property has open Department of Buildings violations from 2023-2024 regarding the failure to display energy efficiency scores and grades, while its bedbug reporting record from 2021-2024 shows no infestations or eradications during the specified periods. Previous maintenance history shows a pattern of plumbing and water-related issues, along with pest management challenges. The building's owner has undertaken various permit-approved work, with multiple AL permits issued between 2018 and 2020, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvements to the property.
