12 East 127th Street, Manhattan, NY 10035
The three-story, 11-unit residential building at 12 East 127th Street in East Harlem, owned by Arnold Thomas and constructed in 1910, is currently facing multiple regulatory compliance issues that warrant attention. The property has a recurring pattern of failing to submit required bedbug reports to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) from 2021 through 2024, with the most recent violation recorded in April 2024.
Additionally, there is a concerning backlog of external low-pressure inspections that spans several years, with active violations recorded between 2018 and 2023, including the most recent violation issued in September 2024 for failure to file the 2023 inspection report. A similar pattern exists for boiler inspection compliance, with an active violation dating back to January 2020 for failing to file the 2017 report.
Despite these documentation and compliance issues, the building has maintained a passing record in rodent inspections over the past several years, with the most recent inspections in 2025, 2024 (twice), 2023 (twice), 2022, 2019, and 2018 all showing compliance. However, it is notable that there was one failed compliance inspection in March 2017 for "Other Reasons," though the specific nature of this failure is not detailed in the records. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of successful regulatory compliance in terms of rodent control and persistent issues with timely filing of required safety inspections and reports, particularly in relation to bedbug reporting and external low-pressure systems.
