45 West 89th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

45 West 89th Street is a 4-story, 10-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, built in 1893 and currently owned by Jeffrey Harper. The building has demonstrated compliance with recent health and safety standards, with no recorded bedbug infestations over the past seven years (2019-2025), as evidenced by annual reports showing zero infested units.

Additionally, the property has consistently passed rodent inspections annually from 2014 through 2024, indicating effective pest management. The building's violation history shows two primary clusters of issues requiring attention.

In October 2000, multiple violations were recorded regarding defective painted sprinkler heads throughout the building, including locations in the basement and public halls on the first through fourth floors; however, all these violations were officially certified as closed in April 2023. A separate group of violations from September 1986 related to various safety and maintenance concerns in the fourth floor public hall, including inadequate lighting at the entrance, unauthorized encumbrances, and the presence of a metal barrier across the scuttle recess; these violations were also certified closed in April 2023. Despite the building's age and these historical violations, the recent record of no bedbug infestations and consistent rodent inspection compliance suggests improved maintenance in recent years.
