147 West 130th Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

The three-story, eight-unit building at 147 West 130th Street in Harlem, owned by Ryan Pedram, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, particularly related to indoor air quality and maintenance. Most notably, in September 2024, the property received multiple complaints regarding mold and indoor air quality, with one violation currently remaining open concerning defective self-closing doors leading to the basement.

The building has a troubling history of unsanitary conditions, including reports of garbage storage issues in 2022 (resulting in violations), and evidence of pest problems. There was also a heat and hot water emergency complaint affecting the entire building in December 2022, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification. More recent data from the building shows active violations related to building safety requirements, including multiple open violations for failure to file external low-pressure inspections from 2018 through 2023, as well as a September 2023 violation concerning refuse accumulation at the building's front yard and first story.

Despite these issues, the building has consistently passed rodent inspections over the past several years, with the most recent inspections in 2025 showing compliance. The building's bedbug reporting records from 2023, 2024, and 2025 indicate no reported infestations during these periods, suggesting effective management of this particular issue. While some maintenance problems persist, the property has received proper inspection and violation notices from various city agencies, though compliance with certain safety requirements appears to be lacking, particularly regarding the timely filing of mandatory building inspections.
