345 East 77th Street, Manhattan, NY 10075

345 East 77th Street is a 6-story, 60-unit residential building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Anthony Cohn. The Upper East Side property has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues over the years.

Most recently, in January 2024, the Department of Buildings issued a violation related to the building's exterior maintenance, specifically citing cracked stucco and peeling paint on the south elevation's roof parapet wall. The building has also faced challenges with rodent control, with three inspections in 2023 showing varying results: an initial rat activity finding in January 2023, though subsequent inspections in March and July 2023 passed. While the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations in its annual reports from 2019 through 2024, it did receive a violation in 2022 for not filing the required annual bedbug report.

Looking at the building's history, there have been two significant utility-related complaints: one in 2019 regarding gas utility issues and another in 2022 concerning building vibrations, though both were resolved with no violations found during inspections. There are also persistent outstanding violations related to energy efficiency score display requirements from late 2021, which remain open as of the current reporting period. The property has generally maintained good standing with regular rodent inspections, passing nearly all inspections between 2012 and 2023, with the exception of the aforementioned rat activity finding in January 2023.
