59 West 128th Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

59 West 128th Street is a 5-story, 8-unit residential building located in Harlem, owned by Ryan Pedram and completed in 2018. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues related to heat and hot water, with three emergency complaints recorded in January 2023 and January 2024, though HPD verified restoration in one case and noted access issues in others. Window frame problems have been documented in 2023 and 2024, with no violations issued following HPD inspections.

The building underwent significant construction in late 2018 and early 2019, during which multiple safety violations were recorded, including failure to provide proper fall protection and safety equipment, inadequate housekeeping, and improper egress routes, resulting in various fines totaling $5,875. More recently, a 2024 inspection revealed several administrative violations regarding required postings in the building's common areas, including bedbug reporting requirements and safety notices, though these have since been certified as corrected. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting regulations from 2021 through 2025, with consistently reported counts of zero infested or eradicated units.

Regular rodent inspections have been conducted between 2018 and 2025, with all results indicating passing status. In 2024, the building received one open Class C violation for not posting the designated heating system keyholder notice in the first-story public hall. While the building underwent various changes during its construction phase, including multiple stop-work orders related to safety concerns, it appears to have stabilized since 2019, with recent inspections focusing primarily on administrative compliance rather than major structural or safety issues.
