379 West 127th Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

The 5-story, 21-unit tenement building at 379 West 127th Street in Harlem, owned by Andre Mongouge, was constructed in 1901 and has recently experienced several concerning maintenance issues. Most notably, there have been recurring heating and hot water problems, with multiple complaints in late 2024 and early 2025 showing violations that required correction by the property owner. The building is currently facing significant open violations in Apartment 52, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, bathroom fixtures, roof leaks, and pest infestation, all documented during a December 2024 inspection.

Recent service requests also indicate water leak problems and unsanitary conditions related to pests in 2025. The building's maintenance history shows some recurring patterns, particularly with heating systems and water-related issues. Between 2024 and 2025, there have been multiple emergency complaints regarding heat and hot water problems, including one as recently as January 2025.

The property has passed several rodent inspections in 2022, 2023, and 2024, though there was one instance of rat activity noted in February 2022. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status, with no reported infestations in the past seven years. An illegal conversion complaint was filed in May 2025 but was investigated and found to have no warrant for violation. While the building has undergone various inspections and received some violations, most recent complaints indicate ongoing maintenance challenges that require attention, particularly in Apartment 52 where multiple simultaneous violations were documented.
