55 West 90th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

The four-story, 1886 apartment building at 55 West 90th Street, owned by Avi Feldman, has experienced ongoing challenges with compliance requirements in recent years, particularly regarding bedbug reporting. The property has accumulated four open Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024, all related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules.

Additionally, there were two violations concerning inspection report filings - one for the 2022 external low pressure inspection in 2023, and another for the 2017 boiler inspection in 2019 - though these were both subsequently dismissed. The building's recent health and safety record shows some cause for concern, particularly in 2024.

In May 2024, two complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions related to a dog on private property, with one of these complaints resulting in an inspection attempt that could not access the property. While the building has maintained consistent passing results in rodent inspections since 2015, with the most recent inspections in 2024 showing compliance, the persistent bedbug report violations over multiple years represent the most significant pattern of noncompliance. It's worth noting that the building's housing code violations appear primarily administrative in nature, relating to required documentation rather than direct habitability issues, though they do indicate some lapses in regulatory compliance.
