301 West 89th Street, Manhattan, NY 10024

301 West 89th Street is a three-story, 15-unit residential building located in Manhattan's Upper West Side, owned by Stephen Rutenberg and constructed in 1910. The building currently has an active violation with the Department of Buildings from June 2023 for failure to file the 2018 External Low Pressure Inspection, and has experienced ongoing rodent management issues over the past three years.

While the building has consistently passed rodent inspections in 2025, 2024, and 2023, there was a notable rat sighting complaint in February 2022 that led to Department of Health intervention. The property has undergone regular rodent control measures, with multiple bait applications recorded between September 2022 and March 2022.

Despite these challenges, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with official reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation across all units. The building's management has demonstrated compliance with rodent inspections in recent years, with the most recent inspections in early 2025 passing successfully. The combination of regular pest control measures, consistent rodent inspection passings, and an absence of bedbug issues over multiple reporting periods suggests that while the building has faced rodent management challenges, recent efforts have focused on maintaining compliance with health and safety standards.
