155 West 82nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

155 West 82nd Street is a historic three-story, five-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side neighborhood. Built in 1886 and currently owned by Elan Bortniker, this HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug report compliance over the past four years. Specifically, between 2021 and 2024, the building received four Class A violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under the Housing Maintenance Code, with the most recent violation in April 2024 still remaining open.

These violations, while administrative in nature, suggest ongoing challenges with adherence to housing maintenance requirements. The building's rodent inspection history presents a mixed but generally positive picture. Most recently, in August 2024 and May 2023, the property passed rodent inspections.

However, there was one instance of rat activity recorded in April 2022, which stands out as the only failure in their rodent inspection record over the past eight years. The property has maintained compliance through multiple inspections between 2017 and 2024, with the majority of inspections resulting in passed ratings. The bedbug reporting history from 2020-2021 shows no reported infestations during that specific period, with zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units recorded. This structure's long-standing conversion to a Class A building status and its relatively small size suggest a close-knit community, while the recurring bedbug report violations indicate an ongoing administrative oversight issue that has persisted for multiple years.
