30 East 126th Street, Manhattan, NY 10035

30 East 126th Street is a 3-story, 5-unit residential building located in East Harlem, built in 1909 and currently owned by Joseph Makhani. The building has consistently faced issues with administrative compliance, particularly regarding required inspections and reports.

Most notably, there are multiple open violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports in 2023 and 2024, and several active violations for not completing Required Annual External Low Pressure Inspections from 2018 through 2023. In July 2023, an Environmental Control Board violation was issued concerning cracks and separation of window lintels on the front facade, and missing bricks above a window on the back facade, though this violation has since been resolved. The building's safety and security history include concerning incidents in 2022, with complaints about debris and the property being vacant/open/unguarded, though no violations were found upon inspection.

A prior ECB violation from 2019 indicates issues with maintenance of vacant building security. Despite these concerns, recent rodent inspections from 2018 through 2025 have consistently passed, and a bedbug report filed for the period 2020-2021 indicated no infestations, though the lack of recent filing compliance raises questions about current conditions. The building's records show multiple inspection periods with closed violations, suggesting some responsiveness to regulatory requirements, though recent patterns indicate ongoing challenges with maintaining complete compliance.
