62 West 124th Street, Manhattan, NY 10027
The six-story, 41-unit tenement building at 62 West 124th Street in Harlem, owned by Princess Palmer and constructed in 1900, has experienced persistent maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there are significant ongoing problems with garbage/recycling storage and pest infestations, as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code Complaints in June 2025. The building has documented rodent activity through multiple inspections between 2024 and 2025, with the most recent rat sightings reported in May 2025.
Apartment 2B has multiple serious open violations from July 2024, including inoperable smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and evidence of pest infestations requiring abatement. Apartment 2D also has open violations from May 2024 concerning water leaks and damaged plaster surfaces. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints and violations recorded between 2018 and 2024 regarding single-device operation and missing safety signage.
An active Environmental Control Board violation from March 2024 carries a penalty for missing fire safety signage and maintenance log issues. The property has also had various administrative violation matters, including failures to file benchmarking reports and other documentation requirements between 2018 and 2023. While the building has maintained a zero infestation record for bedbugs in recent reporting periods (2022-2025), the persistent rodent and pest issues, combined with multiple safety violations, suggest ongoing challenges regarding building maintenance and resident safety.
