521 West 141st Street, Manhattan, NY 10031

The 8-unit, 4-story apartment building at 521 West 141st Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Khadija Evans-bey, was constructed in 1910 and is classified as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A building. The property has experienced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations noted in 2022, 2023, and most recently in 2024 regarding failure to file annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD regulations.

While there were no reported bedbug infestations during the 2019-2020 reporting period (with zero infested, eradicated, and re-infested units), the persistent violation history suggests ongoing administrative challenges. In contrast, the building has demonstrated consistent upkeep in terms of rodent control, passing all ten inspections conducted between 2016 and 2025, including the most recent inspection in April 2025.

These regular rodent inspections, which are conducted annually, show the property maintains proper sanitation standards in this regard. The pattern of open bedbug report violations, while concerning from a compliance perspective, is somewhat mitigated by the absence of actual infestation reports during the documented periods. The building's records show that while there have been persistent regulatory compliance issues, particularly regarding bedbug reporting, the property has demonstrated appropriate response to rodent management requirements as evidenced by the consistently passing inspection results.
