12 East 89th Street, Manhattan, NY 10128
The 7-story building at 12 East 89th Street, owned by Saint David's School and constructed in 1920, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with particular concerns regarding pest control and facade maintenance. Most notably, the building has received multiple open violations between 2021 and 2024 for failing to file required annual bedbug reports, suggesting ongoing challenges with pest management compliance.
The facade has been a significant focus of regulatory attention, with multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations in 2024 related to unsafe facade conditions, including spalling bricks on both the north and south facades. In 2020-2021, the building failed to comply with various reporting requirements for energy benchmarking and inspections, though these violations were ultimately dismissed. The property has also faced challenges with rodent activity, particularly during 2022-2023, with several inspections revealing rat activity and necessitating bait application.
Recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have shown improvements, with both passing inspections suggesting better pest management practices. While some violations, such as those related to construction site safety and sidewalk protection in 2019-2020, have been resolved, the pattern of repeat violations, particularly regarding bedbug reporting and facade maintenance, indicates ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's most recent rodent inspections from 2025 show improved conditions, though this followed several years of documented rodent activity and bait applications.
