414 East 52nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10022

414 East 52nd Street is an 11-story, 84-unit residential building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Daniel Neumann. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years, most notably a series of tenant safety inspections throughout 2024 that resulted in stop work orders, though these were ultimately fully rescinded. Two Environmental Control Board violations were issued to Demari Services Inc.

in late 2024 regarding facade work, resulting in penalties of $2,500 and $1,250, respectively, related to inadequate documentation of safety equipment. The building has documented ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, including three consecutive failures to file required energy benchmarking reports between 2021-2023, and a current active violation for failing to file the FISP Cycle 9C technical report by February 2024. The property's pest management record shows relatively few issues, with only one documented bedbug incident in 2021, though recent bedbug reports from 2022-2024 indicate zero infested units.

The building has maintained consistent rodent inspection compliance, passing all inspections between 2010-2025. Historical data from 2018 shows significant plumbing issues, with two separate complaints leading to full stop work orders. The Department of Buildings records also show various permits being issued for work at the property in 2019 and 2020, including elevator-related work, though specific details of these projects are not provided in the available data. While the building has generally maintained compliance with health and safety inspections, the pattern of safety-related violations and regulatory non-compliance warrants attention, particularly in terms of building maintenance and safety procedure adherence.
