79 Leroy Street, Manhattan, NY 10014

79 Leroy Street, a three-story, five-unit residential building in the West Village, has maintained a generally good record since Joseph Goldsmith acquired the 1852 property. The building has been compliant with bedbug reporting requirements since 2021, with no confirmed infestations reported in the past four annual filings, most recently for 2023-2024.

While the property experienced some construction-related issues in late 2022 and early 2023, with two reports of indoor air quality concerns due to construction dust, both cases were addressed by health officials sending advisories to the owner. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections between 2016 and 2024, with the most recent inspection in July 2024 showing a "Passed" result, though there were observations of rat activity noted in April 2021 and January 2022. The property has had several Department of Buildings complaints over the past few years, particularly regarding work without permits in early 2023 and construction-related concerns in 2022, though inspections did not warrant violations at those times.

The building has consistently filed its annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code, which is a positive compliance indicator. The most recent rodent inspection results, along with the lack of any current bedbug issues, suggest the building is currently maintaining appropriate pest control measures. The property has shown improved compliance with Health Department regulations, as evidenced by the absence of recurring violations related to indoor air quality issues since early 2023.
