261 West 71st Street, Manhattan, NY 10023
261 West 71st Street is a three-story, 9-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, constructed in 1887 and currently owned by Alyne Diamond. The building has maintained a consistent track record of compliance with health and safety regulations over the past decade.
Most notably, there is no history of bedbug infestations in recent years, with the building's bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2025 consistently showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, demonstrating effective pest management procedures. Rodent control measures have also been successful, with all ten rodent inspections conducted between 2015 and 2024 (including inspections in 2024, 2023, and 2022) resulting in passed inspections. The building has experienced minimal violations, with three Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded between 2022 and 2024 related to the requirement to file annual bedbug reports.
However, these violations appear to be administrative in nature, as subsequent filings in 2025, 2024, and 2023 are current and show no infestation history. A rat sighting was reported in April 2024, though the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene's subsequent inspection found no violations. The building's overall maintenance record suggests proactive management, with regular inspections and prompt resolution of any identified issues, though recent years have shown particular attention to compliance with bedbug reporting requirements.
