1192 Park Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128

1192 Park Avenue is a 15-story, 75-unit residential building located in the Upper East Side, built in 1926 and currently owned by Anthony Milstein. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building in April 2023, and multiple electrical problems in September 2020. These incidents required emergency responses from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though the issues were reported as resolved following interventions.

The building's maintenance history shows ongoing concerns with building systems and compliance. In 2023, there were multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints relating to construction work, electrical wiring, and a work contrary to stop work order. Notable violations from 2020 include several open citations related to required safety signage and notices in the public hall on the first story, including those for heating system contact information, smoke detector requirements, and gas leak procedures.

The building underwent various construction and renovation work between 2018-2021, as evidenced by multiple permit issuances, though there were also instances of work without proper permits being reported. The property has maintained an acceptable pest control record, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past five years and passing rodent inspections from 2010 through 2022, despite one instance of "Rat Activity" noted during a 2016 inspection. Recent regulatory compliance issues include two violations issued in 2024 for failure to file energy use benchmarking reports, though these were subsequently dismissed. The building's overall condition shows a pattern of intermittent utilities-related issues and regulatory violations that, while generally addressed, suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
