226 West 136th Street, Manhattan, NY 10030
226 West 136th Street is a 3-story, 8-unit residential building in Harlem, built in 1900 and currently owned by Rudy Hagley. The property has experienced recurring issues with rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in 2025 showing persistent rat problems, and multiple inspections in 2024 and 2023 also indicating rat activity.
The building has several open violations as of 2025, primarily affecting Apartment 4F, including issues with electrical switches, ceiling leaks, defective floor tiles, and missing switch plates. Additionally, there are water-related concerns from late 2024 involving heavy flow and damp spots.
Historical records from 2018 show that the building underwent scrutiny for potentially illegal hotel room conversions, resulting in multiple environmental violations regarding inadequate egress, fire alarm systems, and sprinkler requirements for transient use, though these were resolved with penalties. More recent complaints from 2024-2025 include various maintenance issues such as problems with electric ranges, plumbing, paint/plaster work, and electrical outlets. While the bedbug reporting for the past three years (2021-2025) shows no infestation cases, the building's maintenance record over the past few years indicates ongoing challenges with basic building systems and pest control that have required multiple inspections and follow-up actions.
