12 West 29th Street, Manhattan, NY 10001

12 West 29th Street is a 5-story, 5-unit commercial building located in Midtown, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Melissa Grey. The building has experienced several notable incidents over the past five years, most significantly a heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building in May 2020, though these services were reportedly restored shortly thereafter.

The Department of Buildings received two complaints in recent years: a gas utility referral in April 2020 that could not be investigated due to access issues, and an elevator service complaint in September 2019 that could not be properly located. The building has maintained good records regarding pest control, with annual bedbug reports filed from 2019 through 2025 showing zero infested or re-infested dwelling units during these periods.

Two Housing Maintenance Code violations for failure to file the annual bedbug report were issued in 2021 and 2024, though these may have been administrative oversights rather than indicating a pest problem. The property has a strong history of passing rodent inspections, with successful compliance demonstrated in 2010, 2011, 2012 (twice), and 2014. While the building has experienced some service interruptions and regulatory issues, it has generally maintained good conditions regarding pest management and rodent control, with all recent service requests and violations being addressed or closed out appropriately.
