514 West 122nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

The 514 West 122nd Street property, a 6-story New Law tenement building built in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years, most notably regarding rodent control. The building has undergone multiple rodent inspections between 2022 and 2025, with six inspections in 2024 alone indicating consistent challenges with rat activity, though recent inspections from January and June 2025 have shown improvement with passed results.

The building also had an active Department of Buildings (DOB) violation related to failing to file a FISP Cycle 8A Technical Report by the required deadline in 2019, and a notable ECB violation from 2019 regarding the failure to submit a critical examination report of exterior walls, for which a $1,250 penalty was imposed. However, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years, with the most recent bedbug report filings from 2023 and 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units, and no reports of re-infestation, suggesting effective management of this particular issue. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing violations over time, with specific issues being resolved or dismissed based on subsequent inspections and reports.

While rodent control has emerged as a recurring challenge, recent compliance inspections in 2025 indicate some improvement in this area. The property's bedbug management appears exemplary, with consistent reporting and no recorded infestations in recent years. The building's owner, Kdewayne White, should be noted for their efforts in maintaining regular bedbug reporting compliance, with filings consistently showing zero affected units since 2020.
