309 East 49th Street, Manhattan, NY 10017
The 22-story, 85-unit residential building at 309 East 49th Street in Midtown, owned by Alfred Nicasio, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most concerning is an open electrical wiring complaint as of April 2025, classified as an emergency by the Housing Maintenance Code.
The building has faced ongoing pest-related challenges, with multiple unsanitary condition complaints regarding pests filed in late 2024, despite HPD's inability to complete inspections. Between mid-2023 and 2025, there were significant rodent control issues, including repeated documented rat activity throughout most of 2023-2024, though recent inspections in early 2025 passed with no violations. The building's structural and safety maintenance record shows active concerns, including a 2024 ECB violation for failure to secure a public-unsafe façade with a $10,000 penalty.
Two Class A Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021-2022 regarding bedbug reporting requirements were issued, though subsequent filings from 2019 to 2025 indicate no infested dwelling units. The property has undergone various permitted works between 2018 and 2020, primarily related to electrical and plumbing systems, with all permits properly issued and documented through the Department of Buildings. Recent Department of Buildings inspections in 2018, 2021, and 2025 found no violations warranting penalties, though there were deferred compliance issues regarding the unsafe façade that remain active as of 2024.
