449 West 51st Street, Manhattan, NY 10019
The three-story, seven-unit tenement at 449 West 51st Street, owned by Mansour Farhadian and built in 1901, has experienced recurring pest-related issues in recent years. Most notably, in early 2024, there were two confirmed pest-related complaints that required intervention by the Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) department.
While the building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections between 2021-2025, with recent compliance inspections in January 2025 and July 2024 showing passing results, there were three instances of bait application in August 2019. The building underwent a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) inspection in October 2023 following a food poisoning complaint, which was determined to be isolated. The property has seen various maintenance issues addressed over the years, including garbage/recycling storage problems in 2021 and a heat/hot water complaint in 2020, both of which were resolved without violations being issued.
Notably, the building had two inspections in 2018 and 2019 regarding the presence of illegal hotel rooms, though inspectors were unable to gain access in both instances. A violation for failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report was issued in November 2019, and in 2024 the building received a Notice of Violation related to not filing the annual bedbug report, though subsequent bedbug reporting from 2024 shows no infested units. The building's permit history shows activity in 2019 and 2020, with at least one permit related to electrical work being issued in October 2020.
