56 Edgecombe Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10030
The four-story, Class B building at 56 Edgecombe Avenue in Harlem, owned by Elizabeth Posse, has a significant and concerning pattern of Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements over the past four years.
Between 2021 and 2024, the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) issued four separate violations (in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in 2024) for the failure to file the annual bedbug report as mandated by HMC regulations, with all these violations currently marked as open. While the building has maintained rigorous compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections since 2018, including the most recent one in May 2025, the persistent bedbug reporting violations suggest a recurrent administrative oversight that will require attention.
The building's history shows no reported rodent issues since at least 2018, indicating successful pest control measures in that regard, though the ongoing bedbug reporting violations represent a different category of pest management compliance. It's worth noting that all violations are classified as Class A, which generally indicates lower severity than Class B violations.
