53 West 111th Street, Manhattan, NY 10026
53 West 111th Street is a 10-unit, five-story Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1899 in Harlem, currently owned by Larry Lux. The building has experienced several notable maintenance events over the past few years, with the most recent being an active violation issued in September 2024 for failure to file the 2023 external low pressure inspection.
The property has maintained a consistent record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with all recent filings (most recently in May 2025) showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units during the reporting periods. While the building has passed multiple rodent inspections in 2023, including several "Passed" outcomes and one instance of "Rat Activity" in March 2023, subsequent inspections (including September 2024 and March 2025) have returned to "Passed" status, suggesting improved conditions.
The building's history shows regular attention to mandatory reporting requirements, with bedbug reports submitted annually showing consistent monitoring and lack of infestations over the past five reporting periods. The property has experienced recurring Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements between 2021 and 2024, though these appear to have been resolved based on recent filings. The most pressing current concern is the active Department of Buildings violation regarding the external low pressure inspection filing, which remains unresolved as of the latest data.
