145 West 129Th Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

The three-story, six-unit residential building at 145 West 129th Street in Harlem, currently owned by Joseph Jemal, has experienced significant construction-related activity and regulatory oversight since 2020. Most notably, there were multiple enforcement actions in 2022 regarding construction safety compliance and work without proper permits, leading to several Oath Violations and at least one Stop Work Order that was fully rescinded.

The building has been subject to recurring construction safety compliance issues, with violations recorded in 2020, 2021, and 2022, often requiring inspections and follow-up actions by the Department of Buildings. Three immediately hazardous violations were recorded in September 2020 for failure to certify corrections, and in July 2021, a Stop Work Order was issued due to contractor withdrawal and site conditions. The building's permit history shows consistent activity, with multiple permits being filed and issued between 2020 and 2024, including plumbing (PL), electrical (EW), and alteration (AL) permits.

The most recent permit activity as of September 2024 is still in process, suggesting ongoing work or modifications to the property. While many of the violations and enforcement actions have been dismissed or resolved, the pattern of construction-related issues over multiple years indicates a history of regulatory scrutiny. The building, constructed in 1899, is classified as "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A," suggesting it underwent a conversion to a regulated use after its original construction.
