2 5th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10011
2 Fifth Avenue is a 20-story Class A residential building located in Greenwich Village, consisting of 343 units and built in 1952, currently owned by Jerry Caccappolo. The building has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, most notably structural concerns that required engineer inspections in 2023-2024, with penalties imposed for failure to comply with reporting requirements. There are active ECB violations related to the parking structure's concrete framing condition and an over-occupation issue (86 cars vs.
73 allowed) that remains unresolved. The building has faced multiple pest-related challenges, particularly in 2023, with roach infestations documented in apartment 21, and a history of rodent activity, though recent inspections in late 2024 passed without violations. The property has undergone several health and safety inspections, including multiple Tenant Safety Inspections in 2023 that resulted in Oath Violations Served.
While the building has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations in the past three years (2021-2024), there have been recurring maintenance issues, including a rodent violation in 2021, and safety concerns regarding fire escapes in 2022, though no violations were found in that case. Multiple housing maintenance code complaints have been filed and addressed, including issues with unsanitary conditions in 2023 related to pests. The building's management has obtained various permits for work performed between 2020-2022, though some violations remain open as of early 2025. The property's recent inspection history shows some improvement in pest control, with passed inspections in 2024, though the structural concerns and parking violation remain significant ongoing issues.
