151 West 118th Street, Manhattan, NY 10026

151 West 118th Street is a historic 4-story, 3-unit residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1887 and currently owned by Lisa Friend. The building's records show consistent compliance with rodent control measures, passing all inspections from 2017 through 2025, which indicates effective pest management practices.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past six years, as evidenced by the monthly bedbug reporting submissions from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units. However, the building has experienced some compliance issues that warrant attention. In 2022, there was a housing maintenance code violation related to the annual bedbug report filing requirement, though this violation is now listed as closed.

More significantly, in December 2019, the Department of Buildings issued a complaint and violation for allegedly operating illegal hotel rooms in the residential building, resulting in an active Environmental Control Board violation with a $1,250 penalty. This violation relates to the improper use of permanent dwelling units for non-permanent residential purposes, though the current balance due is listed as $0. Despite these historical issues, the building has demonstrated appropriate response to regulatory requirements, as evidenced by the absence of recurring violations and the successful completion of recent rodent inspections.
