8 East 128th Street, Manhattan, NY 10035

8 East 128th Street is a 3-story, 6-unit residential building located in East Harlem, owned by George Waterman and constructed in 1905. The building has experienced consistent bedbug reporting violations over the past four years, with the most recent open violation dated April 2024 regarding the failure to file the required annual bedbug report.

However, it's worth noting that during this same period, the building has maintained an impeccable record of rodent control, passing nine consecutive rodent inspections from 2017 through 2025, including five inspections since 2022. The bedbug reporting history shows that between 2021 and 2023, there were no reported cases of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation in any units during the required reporting periods (November 1 to October 31).

While the open bedbug report violation could indicate administrative oversight, the absence of actual infestations during the reporting periods suggests effective pest management practices. The building's long history of successful rodent inspections and relatively recent conversion to a "heretofore converted class B" designation further illustrates its maintenance history, though residents should remain vigilant given the recurring nature of the bedbug report violations.
