476 11th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10018

The 52-story, 590-unit residential building at 476 11th Avenue in Hell's Kitchen, owned by Joseph Flanagan and completed in 2020, is currently experiencing multiple maintenance issues. As of May 2025, there are open complaints regarding the ventilation system, heat and hot water (emergency), and wall paint/plaster conditions, along with reports of mold (emergency). The building has a concerning pattern of heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints recorded between 2024-2025, though some have been resolved quickly.

Ventilation system problems have emerged as a recurring issue, with open and closed complaints in both 2024 and 2025. Additional maintenance issues include a reported window frame problem (closed with no violations in December 2024) and multiple sanitary condition complaints. The building's history shows several violations and complaints during its initial occupancy period in 2020, primarily related to construction safety and immediate hazardous conditions, though records indicate these violations were ultimately dismissed.

Between 2021-2023, there were no reported bedbug infestations, but one case was reported in late 2024, which was promptly addressed and eradicated. The Department of Buildings has conducted inspections in response to complaints about elevators and illegal advertising, finding no violations warranting further action. While some historical violations from 2020 included failures to certify corrections on hazardous conditions, these were subsequently dismissed. The building's relatively recent construction (2020) suggests that while the property has experienced various maintenance issues, it has not accumulated long-term historical problems typical of older buildings.
