1217 Madison Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128
1217 Madison Avenue, a 13-story, 87-unit Class A building constructed in 1930, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety events over recent years. Most notably, there were multiple building stability concerns reported in 2024, including complaints about building shaking and site conditions endangering workers, though inspections found no violations. Between 2021-2023, there were violations related to illegal electrical work and after-hours construction, with one instance of unpermitted electrical work in 2021 resulting in a $400 fine.
The building has demonstrated a pattern of addressing maintenance issues through proper permit acquisition, with multiple electrical work permits issued between 2020-2021. The property's safety record shows both problems and prompt responses. In 2018-2019, several violations were recorded regarding elevator maintenance and electrical work, though these were subsequently resolved. A concerning violation regarding failure to maintain conditions was recorded in 2019 but appears to have been addressed.
The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with all recent annual reports (2019-2024) showing zero infested or eradicated units. Rodent inspections, conducted regularly from 2012 through 2021, have all resulted in passing grades, indicating effective pest control measures. Recent service requests have primarily related to external issues, such as a mobile food vendor complaint in late 2024 and a mouse sighting in 2021 that resulted in no violations being found. The building's recent history suggests ongoing management attention to maintenance issues, though there have been periodic lapses that required intervention from city agencies.
