122 East 23rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10010

122 East 23rd Street, an 18-story, 140-unit residential building completed in 2016 and managed by owner Jayson Abrams, has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues over its operational history. Most recently, in May 2025, there were ventilation-related complaints filed with both the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and the Department of Buildings, with the health department issuing instructions for correction. The building has maintained a clean record for bedbug infestations, with three consecutive years (2021-2024) showing zero infested units.

However, there were multiple safety violations recorded during the 2018-2019 construction period, including issues with scaffolding, worker safety, and fire code compliance, resulting in fines totaling over $8,000. While most of these violations were resolved, some more recent concerns have emerged, such as a 2022 complaint about non-compliance with vaccine mandates and multiple ventilation-related complaints. The building has undergone regular elevator maintenance, with records showing inspections and repairs continuing up to 2025, though there have been occasional service interruptions.

Additionally, the property has maintained quasi-annual rodent inspections between 2010 and 2014, all of which passed. Recent violations regarding late filing of external low-pressure inspections (2023) and benchmarking reports (2022) were ultimately dismissed. The building's permit history shows consistent maintenance work being performed, with multiple emergency work permits issued between 2019 and 2020, suggesting proactive management of building systems.
