304 West 144th Street, Manhattan, NY 10030
304 West 144th Street is a 5-story, 110-unit old law tenement building in Harlem, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Beverly Riddick. The building has experienced recurring pest issues, with multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests occurring in October 2024, including one valid violation issued for a roach infestation in apartment 7C.
Previous violations include an active Class 1 issue from 2018 regarding building walls and appurtenances, with various reports of cracking and spalling at multiple exposures, as well as issues with exterior wall maintenance documented through 2021. The building has several active Department of Buildings (DOB) violations, including failure to file 2022 external low-pressure inspections (2023) and elevator maintenance issues from 2019. While bedbug reports have been filed regularly between 2021-2024, recent filings indicate minimal infestation activity, with only one infested unit reported in 2024.
The property has shown relatively consistent rodent control compliance, with 2025 inspections passing successfully, though there was some rat activity noted in January 2024. Historical complaints include a heating and hot water emergency issue from January 2020. The building's recent history (2023-2025) shows improved compliance with rodent inspections, passing all initial inspections during this period and demonstrating some progress in addressing pest-related complaints, though violations indicate ongoing maintenance challenges.
