425 East 54th Street, Manhattan, NY 10022
425 East 54th Street is a 12-story, 237-unit residential building constructed in 1956 and currently owned by Ed Benjamin. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years, particularly regarding plumbing and appliance problems. Between February and March 2025, there were multiple 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints related to toilets, refrigerators, and electric/gas ranges, with some inspections finding violations.
Notably, the building has active Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2024 in apartment 3P concerning hot water temperature and refrigerator door seals. The building has also faced pest control challenges, with violations recorded in June 2024 regarding roach infestations in both apartment 3P and the laundry room. The property has undergone various inspections and faced multiple compliance challenges over the years.
In 2024, violations were issued concerning the parking structure's safe condition, resulting in penalties, though some previous violations from 2021-2023 regarding annual report submissions were dismissed. The building's common areas have required attention, with open violations from 2019 related to missing signage and electrical outlet covers in public hallways. While the building has maintained a zero incidence of bedbug infestations in recent years (2018-2024), it has faced rodent-related challenges, with a failed inspection recorded in January 2025 being an exception to historically passing inspections. Current and ongoing maintenance issues, particularly in apartment 3P, suggest that residents should anticipate potential disruptions related to building systems and unit amenities.
