316 West 81st Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

316 West 81st Street is a five-story, 10-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, constructed in 1898 and currently owned by 316 West 81st Street LLC. The building has experienced recurring rodent issues over several years, with the most recent complaint in September 2021 still marked as "In Progress" regarding conditions attracting rodents. Between 2020 and 2022, the property underwent multiple rodent inspections, with activity documented in April 2022, December 2020, and several bait applications recorded throughout January 2021.

The building's management has shown some responsiveness to these issues, as evidenced by the multiple bait treatments and inspections. More recently, however, the building appears to have improved its pest control situation, with the last three rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing successfully. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with all annual reports from 2019 to the present showing zero infested units or related issues.

While the historical data shows a pattern of pest and rodent problems, the recent passing inspections and clean bedbug history suggest some improvement in the building's overall pest management practices. The property underwent two unsanitary condition investigations in late 2020, though no violations were ultimately issued in one case, and there was a failure to gain access for inspection in another. However, no recent unsanitary condition complaints have been filed in the past two years.
