249 West 137th Street, Manhattan, NY 10030

This 5-story, 11-unit building located at 249 West 137th Street in Harlem, owned by Dahlia Plummer and constructed in 1910, has experienced several regulatory compliance issues in recent years that warrant attention. Most notably, there is a concerning pattern of violations related to external inspections, with multiple active violations as of 2024 for failure to file required external low pressure inspection reports from 2018 through 2023.

Additionally, there is an active violation from September 2024 related to the failure to file the 2023 external low pressure inspection report. The building has also demonstrated recurring issues with Annual Bedbug Reporting compliance, receiving violations for failing to submit these reports in 2021, 2022, and 2024, though more recent filings (as of May 2025) indicate no reported infestations during the 2024-2025 reporting period.

Despite these compliance issues, the building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with all of the most recent inspections from 2018 through 2025 showing satisfactory results. The building's management has made efforts to address some of these issues, as evidenced by more recent bedbug reports showing no infestations, and there have been no recorded violations related to bedbugs since the 2024 filing. While the building has a relatively high number of active violations related to inspection report filings, the absence of reported infestations and successful rodent inspections suggest that basic pest control and sanitation standards are being met.
