4 Bedford Street, Manhattan, NY 10014

The 4 Bedford Street property is a four-story, single-unit building located in Manhattan's West Village, owned by Evan Dyal and dating back to 1828. The building's relatively recent history shows some concerning patterns, with the most recent incident being a May 2023 rat sighting reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which resulted in an inspection that identified violations requiring correction by the owner.

Prior to this, there were two Department of Buildings violations recorded in 2020 and 2021, though these were notably resolved by January 2022 through the intervention of Arrow Elevator Inc. and submission of appropriate certifications.

On a more positive note, the building's bedbug reporting for the period from November 2021 to October 2022 shows no evidence of infestation, with the records indicating zero infested units, no successful eradications, and no re-infestations during this time frame. While the historical data spans multiple years, the most pressing concern for prospective tenants would be the recent rodent issues, despite the owner's efforts to address the identified violations. The building's age and classification as an "OLD LAW TENEMENT" suggest it carries historical significance, though this designation also typically represents certain maintenance challenges associated with older buildings.
