29 West 76th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

29 West 76th Street is a 4-story, 10-unit residential building located on the Upper West Side, constructed in 1889 and currently owned by Russell Harkavy. The building has maintained a strong record of sanitation compliance with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), with recent inspections in 2024 and 2023 showing no violations. However, there was one rat sighting reported in August 2023, though this incident was subsequently closed with no violations found during the inspection.

The property has also experienced minimal pest issues over the years, with the DOHMH Bedbug Reporting system showing no infested or re-infested units from 2019 through 2024. The building's rodent inspections present a mixed picture of recent activity: while the most recent inspection in August 2024 passed, there was one instance of "Rat Activity" reported in August 2023, which was promptly addressed. The building's inspection history shows a generally good pattern of compliance, with most inspections passing without issue.

A 2019 complaint regarding indoor air quality due to construction dust was acknowledged, though it's unclear from the available records what the ultimate resolution was. The property has undergone regular inspections and monitoring, particularly regarding rodent issues, with the most recent inspections indicating improved conditions. The bedbug reporting system suggests effective management of potential infestations, with all reporting periods showing zero affected units. Overall, while there have been some isolated incidents of rodent activity, the building's recent inspection history and pest control measures indicate active management of these issues by the property ownership.
