78 Riverside Drive, Manhattan, NY 10024

78 Riverside Drive is a five-story, 10-unit residential building located on Manhattan's Upper West Side, constructed in 1899 and currently owned by Jessica Richman. The building has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020 through the present, maintaining records of zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units in each annual filing. However, there was one Housing Maintenance Code violation in February 2022 related to the late filing of the annual bedbug report, which has since been resolved.

The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with active bait applications recorded throughout 2023-2024, though an initial rat activity indication was noted in September 2023 followed by successful compliance inspection results in November 2023. A relevant Department of Buildings complaint from November 2019 regarding an unpermitted work inquiry resulted in an inspector's inability to gain access during the final attempt. Most recently, in February 2024, a permit application for alteration work was filed and is currently in process (Job Number: 101257925).

The building's maintenance history shows active monitoring of pest control measures, with multiple bait applications continuing into 2024. While the building's tracking of bedbug incidents is exemplary, the rodent control efforts indicate ongoing challenges, particularly noted during the 2023-2024 inspection periods. The property has maintained generally good compliance with regulatory requirements, though the delayed bedbug report filing in 2022 and the 2019 complaint about access issues represent the only notable compliance challenges in recent years.
