167 West 74th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

167 West 74th Street is a 4-story, 2-family residential building constructed in 1886 located in Manhattan's Upper West Side neighborhood, currently owned by 167 West 74th Street, LLC. The building has experienced recurring Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 to 2023, though recent filings from 2023-2024 indicate no current infestations (with the bedbug situation having only one reported case in 2019 that was successfully eradicated).

The property also has two notable recent violations: an active Environmental Control Board violation from January 2024 involving unauthorized work for a temporary storm enclosure (penalty imposed: $250), and a previously dismissed Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2019 external low pressure inspection. The building has maintained a strong record for pest management, passing rodent inspections consistently from 2014 through 2024, indicating effective pest control measures.

While the bedbug reporting violations suggest occasional administrative oversights, the absence of current infestations since 2019 is noteworthy. The recent storm enclosure violation represents the only active building-related issue as of 2024, though it has already accumulated a financial penalty. The property has shown timely compliance with various inspection requirements, and its long-standing status as a 2-family house remains unchanged over the reviewed period.
