What Buyers Should Know

Ongoing Litigation

432 Park Avenue is currently subject to two significant lawsuits that prospective buyers must understand:

• 2021 Lawsuit: The condominium board filed suit against developers CIM Group and Macklowe Properties citing approximately 1,500 alleged defects. Issues include elevator malfunctions, water infiltration, excessive noise transmission between units, and rising common charges. This lawsuit remains pending as of December 2025 with over four million pages of documents in discovery.
• April 2025 Lawsuit: A new $165 million lawsuit alleges "deliberate fraud" regarding the building's facade. The complaint cites "thousands of severe cracks, spalling, and deterioration" in the concrete exterior, causing water infiltration and rebar corrosion. A New York Times investigation (October 2025) estimated remediation costs at approximately $100 million. The building has been classified as "SWARMP" (safe with a repair and maintenance program required within 5 years). CIM Group has denied the allegations and is seeking dismissal.
