247 Lenox Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10027

247 Lenox Avenue is a 4-story, 10-unit residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1886 and currently owned by Andrew McCauley. The building has undergone several regulatory inspections and monitoring over recent years, with particular attention to rodent control and bedbug reporting requirements.

Most recently, in 2024 and 2025, the building completed annual rodent inspections in compliance with city regulations, with all inspections passing successfully, indicating effective pest management practices. The property has experienced two rat sighting complaints (in 2024 and 2022), both of which were investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and resulted in no violations found, as the property passed inspection.

Between 2021 and 2024, the building received three Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file required annual bedbug reports, though these violations were ultimately closed. Despite these violations, the building's most recent bedbug reports for 2023-2024 and 2020-2021 indicate no infested dwelling units, no units requiring eradication, and no re-infested units, suggesting effective pest management and compliance with eradication protocols. The building has maintained a strong record of passing regular rodent inspections since 2019, with persistent efforts to monitor and manage pest-related issues evident through prompt responses to complaints and consistent regulatory compliance.
