3 West 120th Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

3 West 120th Street is a four-story, converted New Law tenement building in Harlem, owned by Dorothy Washington and dating back to 1888. The building has consistently demonstrated compliance with both bedbug reporting requirements and rodent control measures over the past five years.

Most recently, the property filed its annual bedbug report in February 2024, indicating no infested, eradicated, or re-infested units during the 2022-2023 reporting period. This pattern of zero infestation has been consistent in previous filings, including in 2022 when the report covered the period from November 2020 to October 2021.

The building has undergone regular inspections for rodent control, with the most recent inspection occurring in February 2025, all of which have resulted in passing grades. A notable pattern emerged in 2021-2023, where the building received three consecutive housing maintenance code violations (in March 2023, February 2022, and April 2021) related to the requirement to file annual bedbug reports, though these violations were subsequently closed. It's important to note that while these violations appeared in the records, they correlate with the building's eventual compliance and accurate reporting in subsequent years, suggesting that the violations may have occurred during a transitional period before the regular reporting schedule was established.
