59 West 127th Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

59 West 127th Street is a 3-unit, 3-story residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1909 and currently owned by Kiwesa King. The building has undergone several significant events over recent years, with particular attention needed on waste management practices.

In 2018, the property received violations related to unsanitary conditions involving garbage and recycling storage, though these were resolved by September 2018. More recently, in April 2024, a violation was documented regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though the current status of this violation is not clearly indicated in the records. The building has experienced a notable bedbug infestation history, with three units reporting infestation in the 2020-2021 period, though subsequent annual reports from 2021 through 2025 show no new infestations or eradications.

While there were no reported infestations between 2021 and 2025, including three consecutive "0" infestation reports, the building did experience rat activity during an inspection in August 2018, which was the only such instance in the past seven years. All subsequent rodent inspections from 2019 through 2025 have passed without issue, suggesting improved pest management practices. The building's recent maintenance history shows attention to regulatory compliance, particularly in terms of rodent control, though the bedbug reporting violation in 2024 and the 2018 sanitation issues indicate areas requiring continued monitoring.
