224 West 138th Street, Manhattan, NY 10030
224 West 138th Street is a 5-unit, 3-story residential building located in Harlem, owned by Beverly Fong and dating back to 1891. The property has maintained consistent rodent-free status, passing nine consecutive rodent inspections between 2018 and 2025.
While there have been recurring bedbug reporting violations between 2021 and 2024, with four violations occurring during that period for failure to file the required annual bedbug report, the most recent bedbug report filed in August 2024 covering the period from November 2022 to October 2023 shows no infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. The building has several active Department of Buildings violations that warrant attention, including three unaddressed violations from 2018 to 2019 regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections, and an active violation from January 2020 concerning failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report.
A previous violation from April 2022 regarding external low-pressure inspection filing was dismissed in October 2023. The property has exhibited good maintenance in some areas, successfully passing all routine inspections, including rodent inspections and the most recent bedbug reporting requirements. However, the outstanding inspection filing violations, particularly those related to safety systems such as the boiler and low-pressure equipment, represent the most significant regulatory concerns for the building as of 2025.
