1770 Madison Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10035

1770 Madison Avenue, owned by Mahnaz Rabizadeh, is an 8-story, 32-unit residential building constructed in 2014 that has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues throughout its relatively short history. Most recently, in 2024, there have been multiple plumbing and water-related problems, including bathtub/shower and toilet issues, heavy flow water leaks, and reports of mold - all of which were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) with varying outcomes, including some emergency responses.

Notably, there is currently an open Class A violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report. The building has experienced recurring heating issues, with violations issued in January 2024 and previous concerns in December 2023 affecting apartment 6D, which also had safety violations related to defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, as well as door problems - all of which were eventually closed. The building's earlier history shows some significant events, including two ECB violations from 2020 for occupancy without a valid certificate and door lock monitoring issues, though these were resolved.

A comprehensive pest management program appears to have been implemented, with initial inspections between 2015-2019 consistently passing, though bait was applied in 2015. Several maintenance issues have been documented, including water leaks, unsanitary conditions, and plumbing problems, with most recent complaints being addressed by HPD, though some were marked as emergency situations. The building's management has generally responded to violations and complaints, with many being closed after inspections, though there are periodic reoccurrences of similar issues, particularly relating to water infrastructure and building systems maintenance.
