230 East 124th Street, Manhattan, NY 10035

230 East 124th Street in East Harlem is a 6-story, 20-unit residential building constructed in 2009, currently owned by Carlos Mejia. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues, most notably in 2024-2025, with current open complaints regarding unsanitary conditions related to sewage (April 2025) and flooring issues (April 2025). The property has a documented history of pest-related problems, with multiple complaints filed in late 2024 regarding infestations that required HPD intervention.

Recent Housing Maintenance Code violations indicate ongoing concerns, particularly in apartment 3D, where issues with self-closing doors and terrace access have been consistently noted as Class C violations, representing a higher severity. Apartment 1A has previously documented violations related to safety equipment, including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though these were certified as corrected by late 2024. The building's elevator system has been a recurring point of concern, with multiple complaints about no alternate service and access issues documented between 2018 and 2021, resulting in Environmental Control Board violations in 2021 with fines.

However, more recent data shows no current elevator-related complaints. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections with consistent passing results from 2017 through 2025, indicating effective pest management in this area. The building has maintained a zero-bedbug infestation record since 2018, based on official reporting requirements. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, including problems with garbage storage (most recently in 2025), safety equipment, and door functionality, many previously documented violations have been addressed and closed, suggesting some level of responsiveness to maintenance concerns.
