1245 Park Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10128
The 19-story, 164-unit residential building at 1245 Park Avenue in East Harlem, owned by Rafael Sanchez and constructed in 1963, has experienced several noteworthy maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in July 2025, evidence of rat activity was documented during a rodent inspection, following an earlier failed inspection in January 2024 and a similar complaint in 2022.
The building has maintained a generally responsible approach to bedbug management, with the most recent reports from 2022-2024 showing no active infestations, following a single case in 2021 and two in 2018 which were properly eradicated. The building's recent history has been marked by various safety and compliance matters, particularly during 2019-2021. A notable cluster of violations was recorded in 2019 related to elevator maintenance and emergency systems, including inoperative lights and phones, which resulted in multiple fines totaling $3,125.
In December 2021, several construction-related violations were issued regarding suspended scaffolding and facade work, though these were subsequently resolved. Currently, there is an active violation regarding the failure to file the FISP Cycle 9A Technical Report by February 21, 2022. The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to addressing violations, as evidenced by the resolution of multiple ECB violations across different years, though some historical issues persist, such as the most recent rodent activity and the outstanding technical report violation.
