517 West 134th Street, Manhattan, NY 10031

The 8-story, 23-unit building at 517 West 134th Street in Harlem, owned by Ryan Pedram, was constructed in 2015 and has generally maintained good building standards over its operating history. The property has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infestations on all five annual reports from 2020 to 2025. Regular rodent inspections conducted from 2016 through 2025 have all passed, indicating effective pest management protocols.

The building has experienced several maintenance issues that have required attention over the past few years. Notable incidents include a heat and hot water problem reported in January 2022 (resolved within a week), multiple unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage and pests in February 2022 (all resolved by March 2022), and a slow water leak reported in December 2022 (closed in May 2023). The building received bedbug-related violations in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 for failure to file annual reports, though this appears to have been administrative in nature rather than indicating an actual infestation problem.

More recently, there is an active violation from February 2023 regarding the failure to file the FISP Cycle 9B technical report related to exterior wall conditions, which remains unresolved as of the latest data from 2024. The building's maintenance record, while showing some historical issues, indicates that most complaints were addressed promptly and did not result in ongoing problems. The property has maintained an overall good standing with regard to pest control and has demonstrated responsiveness to tenant concerns, though the outstanding FISP report violation from 2023 warrants attention to ensure compliance with building safety regulations.
