1222 2nd Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10065
The 18-story, 136-unit building at 1222 2nd Avenue, owned by Russell Whitman and constructed in 1963, has experienced notable maintenance and safety issues over recent years. The property has a recurring pattern of heat and hot water problems, with emergency complaints recorded in 2019, 2020, 2021, and most recently in October 2024, indicating persistent infrastructure challenges. There were multiple housing maintenance code complaints in 2022, including issues with floors, plumbing, water leaks, and appliance problems, though many were closed due to lack of access for inspection.
More recent concerns include an active ECB violation from October 2024 regarding the parking structure inspection report, and a resolved violation from August 2024 related to façade repair and sidewalk shed conditions. The building's maintenance record shows some positive trends, with no reported bedbug infestations in the most recent two reporting periods (2023-2024), following several years of isolated cases. The property has maintained compliance with rodent control measures, passing multiple inspections between 2010 and 2019.
While a significant number of complaints have been filed regarding various issues (including unauthorized animal facilities, flooring problems, and plumbing concerns), many have been either resolved or closed due to lack of access for inspection. The building underwent construction work in 2023 that resulted in a partial stop work order, though subsequent inspections generally found no violations. Recent 311 service requests in 2025 have primarily concerned external matters such as mobile food vendor permits and daycare facility complaints, rather than building-specific issues.
