944 Lexington Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10021

944 Lexington Avenue is a 13-story, 28-unit New Law tenement building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, constructed in 1916 and currently owned by Chris Ferlisi. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance events in recent years.

In June 2022, multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations were identified, primarily concerning entrance signage, door repairs, and public area maintenance requirements, though all these violations were subsequently certified as closed by September 2022. The building experienced some construction-related issues in February 2022, with two Construction Safety Compliance complaints leading to an Oath Violation and a Stop Work Order, though these were later resolved. From 2019 through 2025, the property has shown consistent attention to pest control, with regular bedbug reports indicating zero infested units for the past three reporting periods (2022-2024).

The building's maintenance history shows regular rodent inspections, with only one instance of rat activity noted in April 2017, while all other inspections since then have passed. Between 2019 and 2020, multiple permits were issued for various work, including electrical and plumbing maintenance, suggesting ongoing infrastructure upkeep. The most recent regulatory compliance records show a noted **Cycle 9A** violation regarding unidentified swarm conditions filed in February 2022 and an **unsafe report** that remains active as of October 2023.
