88 Lexington Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10016
88 Lexington Avenue, an 18-story commercial building constructed in 1927, currently has 89 units and is owned by Tatiana Nizguretsky. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues in recent months, with multiple complaints filed in late 2024 and early 2025, some resulting in HPD violations. More recent concerns include a May 2025 plumbing issue with a basin/sink, and a February 2025 carbon monoxide detector complaint, though the latter was found not to violate housing laws.
The building has maintained a pest-free record, with no bedbug or rodent infestations reported in the past several years, with rodent inspections showing compliance in 2019 and previous years. The property has several active Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to elevator inspections from 2019 that remain unresolved, as well as an active violation from November 2024 regarding an inoperative Weil-McLain boiler with a $625 penalty. Historical violations include mechanical ventilation system issues in 2020 that were never resolved.
Recent construction activity has generated multiple DOB complaints and permit requests, with several ventilation and door-related violations noted between 2022 and 2024. The building underwent construction work in 2022 that generated citations for various safety and compliance issues, though some of these were later resolved. The property has received multiple emergency housing maintenance code complaints in 2024-2025, primarily related to door/window and heating systems, with some leading to open violations. While recent inspection records show the building has been maintaining rodent-free status and no significant pest control issues, the recurring heating system problems and various open violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
