345 East 54th Street, Manhattan, NY 10022
345 East 54th Street is a 6-story, 59-unit residential building constructed in 1960 and owned by Howard Mandel. The building has experienced several significant safety-related issues in recent years, particularly regarding its fire escape systems. In May 2024, safety violations were issued concerning the fire escape, and subsequent inspections revealed multiple fire escape maintenance problems, including defective treads and missing hardware on both the east and west fire escapes.
Other notable maintenance issues from 2024 include problems with self-closing doors in the compactor closet and laundry room, as well as fire retardant material defects in the public hall ceiling. The building has also undergone regular safety inspections, with reports from 2021 and 2024 showing no violations for tenant safety inspections. While there were two reports of illegal hotel rooms in 2020 and 2023, these complaints were either dismissed or could not be verified.
The property has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with the most recent one in January 2025 showing compliance. The bedbug reporting history from 2019 to 2024 indicates zero infestations during the reporting period. The building has shown some issues with timely reporting requirements, as evidenced by a 2022 violation regarding failure to file an energy benchmarking report, though this was subsequently confirmed as submitted. Three open violations as of November 2024 remain unresolved, primarily relating to fire escape safety and maintenance issues.
