253 West 109th Street, Manhattan, NY 10025
The six-story, five-unit Old Law Tenement building at 253 West 109th Street in the Upper West Side, owned by David Greenberg and constructed in 1920, is currently facing some notable pest management challenges.
Most concerning is a pattern of rodent-related issues, with the most recent being a December 2024 DOHMH complaint about rodent signs, and several instances of rat activity documented throughout 2025, including multiple inspections showing rat activity in January and February 2025, though most recent inspections in April 2025 passed. The property has a history of regulatory compliance regarding bedbug reporting, with the most recent filings (in 2023 and 2022) indicating zero infested units during the respective reporting periods (2021-2022 and 2020-2021), despite recurring Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021 related to the requirement to file annual bedbug reports.
The building has undergone multiple rodent inspections in recent years, with some passing while others noted rat activity, suggesting an ongoing effort to manage this issue. While there appears to be effective management of bedbug reporting requirements in terms of eradication, the persistent rodent activity and recent violations regarding bedbug report filing requirements warrant attention.
