277 Fifth Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10016

277 Fifth Avenue is a 51-story, 129-unit residential building constructed in 2017 and managed by 277 Fifth Avenue Condominium in Midtown Manhattan. The building has maintained a generally good track record since its completion, though there have been some notable issues. Most recently, in April 2025, a food poisoning complaint was investigated by the Department of Health, which was determined to be an isolated incident, though it prompted a potential sanitary inspection review.

The building has consistently demonstrated effective bedbug management, with annual reports from 2020 through 2024 showing zero infestations or re-infestations. Rodent inspections conducted between 2010 and 2012 also passed without issue. The property has encountered several regulatory matters related to its external inspections and equipment management. Three violations were issued in 2023 for failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2019 and 2021, though these were subsequently dismissed.

An active violation from February 2022 regarding the FISP Cycle 9A technical report submission remains noted. The building's elevator systems have been the subject of multiple complaints, with investigations conducted in 2023 and 2021 finding no violations. Historical issues from 2018-2019 regarding construction site conditions, after-hours work, and elevator device complaints were also investigated but no violations were warranted at the time of inspection. While these issues suggest occasional management oversights, the building has generally responded appropriately to regulatory requirements, as evidenced by the timely filing of multiple permits between 2019 and 2023 for various work including new construction and exterior work.
