121 West 88th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

121 West 88th Street is a 5-unit, 4-story residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, constructed in 1898 and currently owned by Li Huang. The building has undergone several significant events over the past few years, with notable construction-related issues emerging in 2022 when multiple violations were documented regarding construction site safety, housekeeping, and smoking regulations, resulting in four Environmental Control Board violations (including failure to safeguard persons and property, inadequate housekeeping, lack of safety equipment, and improper construction fencing) with associated fines totaling $7,060. There was also one bedbug report violation for failing to file the 2018 Annual Bedbug Report, which was dismissed.

The building's recent maintenance history shows active management of pest control, with annual bedbug reports filed consistently since 2021, showing eradication of infested units (though with some re-infestations noted), and maintaining an excellent rodent inspection record with all inspections between 2016 and 2024 passing. The property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, requiring multiple violation notices between 2021-2024, though recent filings show improved reporting compliance. Various complaints related to construction work and site conditions were filed between 2018-2023, including issues with permits and debris, though all were closed with no violations warranted at the time of inspection.

The most recent significant events include a bedbug report for the 2023-2024 period showing 0 infested units but previously eradicated 2 units, and a successful rodent inspection in August 2024. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of addressing infestation issues promptly, though with some recurring compliance challenges primarily related to documentation requirements. The property has maintained consistent rodent control success, passing all inspections over the past eight years.
