90 Lexington Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10016

90 Lexington Avenue is a 14-story, 53-unit residential building constructed in 1957 and currently owned by Tatiana Nizguretsky. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple tenant complaints documented between November 2024 and December 2024, including several building-wide and apartment-specific incidents. These complaints, categorized as "emergency" situations, were generally addressed by HPD, though access for inspections was sometimes not granted. More recently, in January 2025, there was another heat and hot water complaint, suggesting ongoing infrastructure challenges.

The building has an active ECB violation from April 2024 regarding exterior wall maintenance and parapet safety, with an imposed penalty of $6,250. The property has documented history of elevator maintenance violations, particularly notable in 2018-2019, and an active DOB violation from 2019 regarding failure to file Category 1 inspection/test records. Multiple housing maintenance code violations were issued in 2018 relating to inadequate signage and electrical outlet safety in public areas. The building has consistently demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021-2024, showing zero infested units during these periods.

Comprehensive rodent inspections conducted between 2010-2016 indicate generally satisfactory pest control conditions, though there were some initial failures noted in 2012 and 2013. Recent permit activity shows ongoing maintenance and improvement work, with multiple permits issued between 2022-2024 for plumbing and other work. The building's management has been responsive to many complaints and violations, though the pattern of heat and hot water issues suggests system instability. The property has maintained a regular bedbug reporting schedule with no infestations reported, and environmental control board violations have been monitored, including one from 2018 regarding elevator maintenance.
