129 Grand Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

129 Grand Street is a 5-story, 4-unit mixed-use building located in SoHo, built in 1861 and currently owned by Dale Westhoff. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing being four active violations as of June 2023 related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspections for both 2018 and 2019. Additionally, there was a door lock monitoring violation in July 2020 that incurred a $1,250 penalty.

The property has maintained a positive record regarding bedbug management, with the most recent annual reports from 2022-2024 showing zero infested or re-infested units. The building has also consistently passed all rodent inspections from 2013 through August 2024, indicating strong pest control measures. The elevator system has been a point of concern, with a shutdown complaint in July 2020 due to a single device on the property and no alternate service, though this was resolved on the same day with an Oath violation served.

While the building has generally maintained compliance with various health and safety requirements, the three-year gap in filing external low-pressure inspections (2018-2019) represents the most significant outstanding regulatory issue. On a more positive note, the building's bedbug reporting has shown consistent adherence to HPD requirements since 2022, with all recent filings indicating no infestations. The most recent permit activity includes an issued emergency work permit in January 2024, suggesting ongoing maintenance and safety improvements continue to be addressed by the current ownership.
