AI summary · updated June 2026

2358 8th Avenue is a 4-story, 19-unit Old Law Tenement building located in Harlem, owned by Sharon Bailey and constructed in 1910. The building has experienced several significant code violations and maintenance issues over the past five years. Between 2018-2019, multiple housing maintenance code violations were documented, including an open Class A violation regarding the posting of required safety notices in the first-story public hall, and a Class C violation concerning an illegal electromagnetic locking device at the building entrance. Additional open violations from the same period relate to the need for proper security measures during power outages and maintenance of the building's bathroom plaster surfaces. More recently, in May 2019, there was a plumbing issue involving a basin/sink that HPD could not inspect due to access issues.

The building's recent inspection history shows attention to pest control, with zero bedbug incidents reported in the last five annual filings between 2020-2024. Rodent inspections have been conducted regularly, with the most recent inspections in 2024-2025 showing consistent passing results, though there was one failed inspection in October 2023 and another in April 2014. The building has undergone annual rodent inspections, demonstrating ongoing monitoring of pest control measures. The most recent housing maintenance activities suggest some improvement, with fewer documented violations in recent years, though several violations from 2018-2019 remain open. The building's overall condition appears to be relatively stable, with successful rodent control measures in place, but with some lingering administrative and security compliance issues from 2018 that require attention.
