987 Madison Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10075

Located on the Upper East Side, 987 Madison Avenue is a 15-story, 42-unit residential building constructed in 1930 and currently owned by George Skintej. The property has undergone several significant events in recent years, with particular attention to two worker-related incidents in early 2023 that resulted in violations for failing to properly report and document injuries, including a worker slip-and-fall incident that required hospital attention.

These incidents led to three Environmental Control Board violations in February-March 2023, with associated penalties totaling $3,750 that were subsequently resolved. The building appears to have experienced ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges, with active violations as of 2024 related to failure to submit required external low pressure inspections for 2023, and multiple years of missing Energy Efficiency Reports dating back to 2021-2022. The building has maintained a regular schedule of permits and inspections, with several plumbing and exterior work permits issued between 2019 and 2024.

Recent health concerns have centered around rodent activity, with the most recent reports in 2025 showing rat sightings and inspections, though the most recent inspection in July 2025 passed. The building's bedbug reporting history shows minimal infestations, with only one unit affected in the 2020-2021 reporting period, and no reported infestations in subsequent years from 2021 through 2024. While the property has generally passed its regular inspections, the pattern of missed deadlines for required reports and the 2023 worker safety incidents indicate areas where building management has faced challenges in maintaining compliance with regulations.
