142 West 76th Street, Manhattan, NY 10023

142 West 76th Street is a four-story, seven-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side neighborhood, owned by Dylan Pichulik and constructed in 1893 as a class A building. The property has experienced recurring issues with sanitation and pest management over the past several years. Most notably, from 2021 through 2023, the building received multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations for failing to file required annual bedbug reports, though subsequent filings from 2023-2025 have shown zero infested units.

While the building currently shows no active bedbug issues, it has faced significant rodent challenges, particularly in mid-2021 when multiple bait applications were required, and there was documented rat activity in both April and May of that year. The property has maintained compliance with rodent inspections in 2022, 2023, and 2024, all passing successfully. The building has experienced some regulatory non-compliance issues worth noting.

An active Department of Buildings violation as of June 2023 indicates a failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection, though it's unclear if this has since been resolved. A 2021 complaint regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development but resulted in no violations being issued. Despite these challenges, recent inspections have shown improvement, with the most recent rodent inspection in April 2024 passing successfully. The building's management appears to have addressed bedbug and rodent issues more effectively in recent years, as evidenced by the absence of infestations in the past two reporting periods and successful rodent inspection outcomes since mid-2021.
