1129 Lexington Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10075

1129 Lexington Avenue is a four-story, two-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper East Side, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by 1129 Lexington Partners LLC. The property has experienced recurring pest issues, particularly with rodents, as evidenced by multiple complaints and violations between 2022 and 2024. Most notably, there was a cluster of rodent-related incidents in April 2023, leading to Housing Maintenance Code violations for unsanitary conditions and active Open violations regarding rodent infestation in April 2024.

The building has consistently failed rodent inspections throughout 2023, though it did pass inspections in previous years from 2017 to 2022. In addition to pest problems, the building has recent environmental and safety concerns. In March 2024, a violation was issued for unpermitted construction work, specifically regarding a wooden and plastic awning structure attached to the building, with a penalty of $1,280 currently due.

The property has open Class A violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports and a specific Class C violation concerning mice infestation in Apartment 3 from 2023. Previous years' violations have included safety notice requirements that were not properly maintained, though these were corrected by April 2019. The building's maintenance history shows intermittent issues with heat and hot water systems, most recently reported in December 2022, and a vaccine mandate compliance issue from October 2021, though these appear to be resolved. The property's frequent pest problems, combined with the recent construction violation, suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that require attention.
