250 Manhattan Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10026

250 Manhattan Avenue is a 6-story, 20-unit residential building located in Harlem, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Stuart Smolar. The building has successfully maintained a record of zero bedbug infestations over the past several years, with annual bedbug reports consistently showing no affected units from 2019 through 2024.

While a housing maintenance code violation was issued in April 2021 regarding the filing of the annual bedbug report, this appears to have been resolved as subsequent filings resumed normally. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent five inspections (2022-2025) all passing, though a rat activity issue was noted in May 2022.

There was one Department of Buildings complaint recorded in November 2022 regarding a retaining wall tracking issue, which was promptly investigated in August 2022 and determined to warrant no violations. The building's permit history shows two work permits issued in 2019 and 2020, though specific details of the work performed are not included in the available data. Overall, the building has maintained a relatively clean record with regard to major health and safety concerns, with responsive action taken where necessary, though the single noted rat activity incident and the bedbug report filing violation in 2021 are worth noting as the building approaches its 106th year of operation.
