1254 Madison Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128
1254 Madison Avenue is a 16-story, 50-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1927, currently owned by Patricia Pettwaybrown and located in Manhattan's Upper East Side. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years, with the most concerning being a 2023-2024 period marked by multiple rodent-related complaints and inspections, including a rodent sighting in May 2025. Between 2021 and 2023, there was an active facade restoration project that resulted in multiple construction safety violations, including defective wiring, improper scaffolding use, and failure to display necessary safety documents, though these violations were subsequently resolved with penalties totaling $8,800.
The building has had recurring health and safety inspection activity, with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene conducting several inspections between 2022 and 2025, including recent food establishment inspections in May 2025 showing signs of rodent issues, though the property generally passed these inspections. The building has shown consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with all annual inspections (2018-2024) reporting zero infestations. Recent issues of note include a 2025 food poisoning complaint involving multiple cases, though the Department of Health determined this to be an isolated incident.
The property has maintained regular rodent control measures, with bait application confirmed in several recent inspections throughout 2025. While the building experienced some documentation and compliance issues regarding energy efficiency reporting between 2021 and 2023, these violations were eventually resolved. The most recent electrical wiring complaint from September 2023 resulted in an Oath violation being served, though there have been no reported violations recorded for this issue since then.
