3542 Broadway, Manhattan, NY 10031
3542 Broadway is a 6-story, 40-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1908, currently owned by Raul Socorro. The building has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues over the past two years, with multiple emergency complaints filed in 2024 and 2025 regarding lack of service throughout the entire building.
The property has also faced challenges with sanitary conditions, particularly relating to pests, with violations issued in February 2024. Recent rodent inspections between 2019-2025 show generally passing results, though a rat activity report was noted in June 2023. The building's infrastructure has been a concern, particularly regarding elevator service, with multiple complaints recorded between 2018 and 2025 about the single device elevator and lack of alternate service, including an active violation from November 2024.
Several open violations remain as of 2025, including obstructions to fire escapes recorded in April 2024, and various historical issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. These include multiple failures to file required boiler inspections between 2018-2023, and recent violations for failure to file 2019-2023 external low pressure inspections. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations since 2019, and recent rodent inspections have consistently passed, the recurring nature of heating issues and outstanding violations suggest continued building maintenance challenges.
