129 East 17th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

The six-story, six-unit building at 129 East 17th Street in Gramercy, owned by Amanda Perin, is a 1900-era old law tenement that has experienced recurring pest management challenges over recent years. Most notably, in August 2024, the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene found signs of rodent activity that resulted in documented violations requiring follow-up inspections.

This incident followed earlier rodent activity notifications in September and October 2024, with the most recent inspection in May 2025 showing "Passed" status, though the pattern suggests an ongoing rodent management issue. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance since 2019, with all annual filings indicating zero infested units, though a violation notice was issued in March 2023 regarding the late submission of the annual bedbug report.

The building's inspection history shows a mix of passed inspections and some rodent activity detections, particularly during 2024, which appears to be the most challenging year in terms of rodent management. Prior to 2024, the property had maintained a stable record with successful initial inspections for rodent activity from 2012-2018, and no recorded bedbug incidents from 2019 onward until the recent reporting violation. While the property has complied with bedbug reporting requirements in recent years, the recurring rodent issues, particularly the violations found by DOHMH in 2024, suggest that pest management remains an area requiring ongoing attention.
