264 West 117th Street, Manhattan, NY 10026

264 West 117th Street is a 5-story, 15-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Harlem, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Andrew Kleiman. The building has experienced recurring pest-related issues, with multiple reports of rodent activity throughout the past five years. Most recently, in 2024, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions and pests, resulting in violations issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

The building had heat and hot water complaints in early 2024, though these were reportedly resolved quickly. Previous records from 2019 show similar rodent issues, with multiple complaints filed through the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH). The building's maintenance history shows attention to various infrastructure needs, including a 2024 violation for a broken door guard in apartment 2C and a roach infestation in the same apartment. Historical violations include issues with building entrance security in 2018, and boiler problems in 2019.

The Department of Buildings conducted inspections between 2018 and 2021, with some inspections noting no violations, while others resulted in Oath Violations being served. However, recent rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025 have all passed, suggesting some improvement in pest management. The building has consistently filed Bedbug Reports annually since 2021, showing no infested units in the past three reporting periods. Multiple permits for maintenance work have been issued over the past five years, indicating ongoing building maintenance and repairs.
