528 Canal Street, Manhattan, NY 10013

528 Canal Street is a 4-story commercial building constructed in 1905 in the Tribeca neighborhood, currently owned by Jack Jangana and containing 3 residential units. The property has experienced recurring rodent-related issues over the past several years, with documented rat sightings in 2019 and 2021, and conditions attracting rodents identified in 2020.

While initial inspections in both 2020 and 2022 revealed rat activity, the building passed subsequent compliance inspections in 2020 and 2022, suggesting some improvement in pest management. A significant housing maintenance code violation was recorded in April 2021 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though this appears to have been resolved as there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the subsequent three years (2021-2024). The building's record shows a generally improving trend in both pest management and compliance with reporting requirements.

From 2017 through 2019, inspections consistently passed, and there have been no reported bedbug infestations in any of the five annual reports filed between 2019 and 2024. The property owner appears to have taken steps to address the rodent issues, as evidenced by the passing compliance inspections following initial rat activity findings. The most recent inspection records from 2022 suggest a reduced frequency of pest-related complaints, though the building's historical data indicates that rodent control has been an ongoing concern that required multiple inspections and interventions over the years.
