530 West 150th Street, Manhattan, NY 10031

The three-story, nine-unit building at 530 West 150th Street in Hamilton Heights, owned by Gladys Akwei, was constructed in 1926 and is classified as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS B building. The property has experienced recurring issues with housing maintenance compliance, most notably a persistent failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug report between 2021 and 2024, resulting in four open Class A violations. Recent service requests from April 2025 indicate ongoing concerns about unsanitary conditions relating to garbage/recycling storage and janitorial services, though these are classified as non-emergency issues.

Additionally, there was a smoking/vaping violation in April 2025, which has been closed by the Department of Health. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of both resolved and persistent issues, including a ceiling paint/plaster complaint from 2019 that was investigated but resulted in no violations. Rodent inspections of the property have generally yielded positive results, with the most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing successfully.

However, there were two failures recorded in 2022, indicating a brief period of rodent-related concerns. The building's records suggest ongoing challenges with compliance and maintenance, particularly regarding waste management and regulatory reporting requirements, though the recent rodent inspection results are encouraging. While the property has demonstrated some concerning patterns in maintenance and compliance, most recent service requests and violations are still in the process of being addressed or investigated.
