An explosive new lawsuit details a frightening late-night outburst at the Admaston -- one allegedly so severe that board members are seeking to force him out.

A Manhattan condo board is suing one of its own unit owners — and asking a court to force him to sell his apartment — after he went on a violent rampage that brought the NYPD to the Upper West Side building last month.

Lawrence Feldman, who owns a unit at 251 West 89th Street, allegedly pounded on a neighbor’s door in the middle of the night and threatened her with sexual and physical violence, physically attacked building staff, smashed a doorman’s monitor, hurled the resident manager’s scooter, and screamed obscenities through the lobby.

Police handcuffed him and took him to a hospital on May 15; he was back the next day.

The board — represented by Fox Rothschild — is now seeking a permanent injunction barring him from the property, a $250,000 surety bond, damages, attorneys’ fees, and, in what may be the most dramatic remedy in its arsenal, a court order compelling Feldman to sell his unit.

Feldman has owned a unit there since 1986.
