530 West 122nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10027

The six-story, 23-unit building at 530 West 122nd Street in Morningside Heights, owned by the Trustees of Columbia University, has a mixed history of maintenance and compliance since its 1905 construction. Most recently, the building was subject to an outside building-related emergency complaint regarding the porch/balcony in April 2024, though no violations were issued following an HPD inspection. The building has experienced three notable maintenance issues since 2019: a plumbing issue in 2019 related to water supply, and wall problems in 2021 requiring paint/plaster repairs.

Two bedbug violation notices were issued in 2021 and 2024 related to annual reporting requirements, though subsequent reports show zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units during the corresponding periods, suggesting effective management of this pest concern. More significantly, the building has active violations from 2022 related to the Failure to Submit Required FISP Cycle 9A Report and Exterior Wall Examination documentation, with a $6,250 penalty imposed. These violations remain unresolved as of the most recent data, suggesting ongoing compliance issues.

On a positive note, the building has consistently passed multiple rodent inspections between 2016 and 2025, demonstrating effective pest management in this area. The building's maintenance history shows responsiveness to emergency complaints, as evidenced by prompt investigations and resolutions, though the active FISP-related violations represent a longer-standing compliance issue. The property has maintained regular bedbug reporting with no recorded infestations in recent years, and rodent inspections have consistently passed, indicating generally good management practices despite the outstanding FISP violations.
