Creepy scrawler

Nazi slurs plastered over condo

A former Queens building manager who allegedly terrorized tenants and proudly displayed Nazi propaganda in the lobby has been charged with scrawling “Kill Hamas Condo Board” all over the property, prosecutor­s said Thursday.

Surveillan­ce cameras allegedly caught Neal Milano, 76, using a black permanent marker to scrawl the nasty message — as well as homophobic and sexist slurs — across eight walls on four floors of the Sunnyside building on Nov. 2, the Queens DA’s Office said.

Milano was released without bail at his Thursday arraignmen­t in Queens Supreme Court on a 10count indictment, including for hate crime charges.

The accused creep, who at one point was the property manager of the 39th Place building, has long caused tensions there.

“He always seems intoxicate­d. He’s a real problem,” one of the residents, who asked to remain anonymous, told The Post on Thursday.

Milano (inset) allegedly spray-painted the vile missive about Hamas on every floor of the building, including in the stairwell, said the neighbor.

“Everybody pretty much feels the same. Everybody in the building wants him to leave,” he said.

In 2017, when Milano was the condo’s property manager, he filled the space with a strange mix of hyperpatri­otic posters and images of Hitler and Mussolini, and tenants told The Post at the time that he ruled the building with an iron fist.

A year later, Milano was acquitted of repeatedly harassing a 43-year-old tenant, including grabbing her by the neck and arm.

The current super said Milano was no longer the manager of the building, which was free of his decoration­s when The Post visited Thursday.

He and every member of the condo board has a restrainin­g order out against Milano, the super said. Milano’s attorney, Kevin O’Donnell, said his client entered a notguilty plea earlier Thursday. Milano is scheduled to next appear in court on Jan. 30.
