520 West 143rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10031

520 West 143rd Street is a 3-story, 4-unit residential building located in Hamilton Heights, dating back to 1899 and currently owned by Diana Murphy. The building has consistently demonstrated compliance with rodent control regulations, passing all ten inspections conducted between March 2016 and June 2025. While the building has maintained an exemplary record in pest management, including successful bedbug prevention efforts with no reported infested or eradicated units since 2019, it has experienced recurring administrative violations related to bedbug reporting requirements.

Specifically, violations were recorded in 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024, though all of these violations were subsequently closed. Additionally, there was one COVID-19 Executive Order complaint filed in May 2020, which was investigated and found to have no warranted violations. The building's recent bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance, with the most recent filings (August 2024 and April 2023) indicating zero infested or previously infested units during the reporting periods.

The property's permit history includes one recorded permit issuance in June 2020 for exterior work. Overall, while the building has had occasional administrative citations regarding bedbug reporting, these appear to be administrative in nature rather than indicative of persistent pest problems, and the building has successfully addressed all violations upon notification. The property's strong rodent inspection record and recent bedbug reporting compliance suggest effective overall pest management practices, though prospective tenants should note the building's age and typical associated maintenance considerations.
