126 West 129th Street, Manhattan, NY 10027
The four-story, three-unit residential building at 126 West 129th Street in Harlem, owned by Henry Chan and constructed in 2000, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years. Most concerning is a February 2024 rat sighting that resulted in Health Department violations requiring follow-up inspections.
While the building has passed multiple rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024, including the most recent in April 2025, the presence of recent rat activity indicates ongoing pest management challenges. The building has a documented history of bedbug reporting requirements, with violations issued in 2021, 2022, and 2023 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by Housing Maintenance Code.
However, recent bedbug filings from 2022 through 2025 show no infested units, suggesting improved compliance with bedbug reporting requirements. An open violation remains from 2018 concerning inadequate lighting at the front entranceway, though this may have been addressed given the subsequent building inspections. The property has generally maintained compliance with housing maintenance codes since 2021, with the exception of the aforementioned rodent violations and entrance lighting issue.
