311 East 54th Street, Manhattan, NY 10022
311 East 54th Street is a 5-story, 40-unit residential building located in Midtown Manhattan and owned by Jay Johnson. The building, constructed in 1963, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most notably, between 2020-2023, there were multiple violations related to construction safety compliance during renovation work, including failures to provide and post Tenant Protection Plans and Safe Construction Bill of Rights notices, resulting in fines totaling $10,000.
In 2020, the building faced immediate hazardous Class 1 violations that were eventually dismissed in 2021. More recently, between 2023 and 2025, the building exhibited some compliance issues with external low-pressure inspection filings, though these violations were ultimately dismissed. The building's recent maintenance history has shown some improvement, particularly regarding pest control; the most recent three annual bedbug reports (2022-2024) indicated zero infested or re-infested units.
Additionally, rodent inspections conducted between 2010 and 2025 consistently resulted in passing grades, with the most recent inspection in January 2025 showing no violations. The property has maintained its building permits for necessary work, with the most recent permits issued in 2021 for electrical and equipment work. While the building has had its share of violations and compliance issues, particularly related to construction work and inspection filings, recent reports suggest improved pest control management and consistent rodent control compliance.
