162 West 123rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

162 West 123rd Street is a historic 4-story, 10-unit residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1884 and currently owned by Chin Hur. The building has experienced ongoing compliance issues related to bedbug reporting requirements, with violations recorded annually from 2021 through 2024, though the most recent 2024 bedbug report shows no affected units and no instances of infestation or re-infestation.

The building's rodent inspection history reveals a pattern of challenges, particularly between 2022-2023 when multiple inspections documented rat activity, including early 2023 reports showing rat presence in both January and May. However, more recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 have shown improvement, with all six inspections during this period passing successfully.

In early 2021, the building faced three consecutive complaints regarding unauthorized work in an occupied multiple dwelling, though all these complaints were closed due to inspectors being unable to gain access during their second final attempts. The building's recent rodent inspection results from 2024 and 2025 demonstrate significant improvement in pest control management, with no recorded rat activity in these subsequent inspections, suggesting effective measures may have been implemented to address the earlier infestations. The most recent bedbug reporting period (2022-2023) completed in July 2024 shows an absence of bedbug-related issues, indicating potential compliance with this specific health and safety requirement, though it's worth noting that the building has experienced multiple violations of this requirement over the past four years prior to this period.
