The man who is under investigation for harassing tenants at a Sunnyside condo with racist and Nazi posters will not run in new board elections.



The property manager of a Sunnyside condominium who became the focus of multiple state and city investigations after he was accused of intimidating and harassing residents, and who hung Nazi posters in the building’s lobby, will not run in next month’s condo board elections.

Neal Milano, 70. and his “one-man reign of terror” was exposed by City Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer (D-Sunnyside) after he toured the lobby of the condo at 47-55 39th Place in August and discovered the names of Nazis Josef Mengele and Rudolph Hess in the building’s directory.

“These tenants are living in terror,” Van Bramer said at a rally that week. “After seeing this lobby firsthand and spending several days with these tenants, I can say without a doubt that they are rightfully terrified of a property manager who posts images of hate and racism, boasts of guns in his apartment while hanging posters celebrating guns and the NRA, and who retaliates against anyone who speaks out.”

After the rally, investigations were launched by state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, the NYPD and the city’s Commission on Human Rights.
