124 West 73rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

The 8-unit, 3-story building at 124 West 73rd Street in New York City's Upper West Side, owned by Isaac Mandalaoui, has experienced persistent pest management challenges over recent years. The 1882 property has been subject to multiple rodent-related incidents, with the most recent inspections in 2024 showing rat activity, and several bait applications recorded in 2023.

The building has also faced recurring pest-related complaints, with three unsanitary condition complaints filed in March 2022 regarding pests, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify these conditions. Additionally, the building has received several Housing Maintenance Code violations in recent years, notably for failing to file annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024, though records indicate no confirmed bedbug infestations during these periods. The property's recent history includes both successful and unsuccessful efforts to manage rodent issues.

Between 2023-2024, there have been multiple bait applications and inspections showing varying levels of rodent activity, with some inspections passing and others requiring baiting. Most importantly, there is currently an active violation from April 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection. While the building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent filings with no reported infestations or extermination needs, the persistent rodent activity and recent regulatory violation suggest ongoing challenges with maintaining the property's compliance with health and safety standards.
