22 Leroy Street, Manhattan, NY 10014

22 Leroy Street is a 6-story, 24-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1903, currently owned by Kosha Diaz and located in the West Village neighborhood. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, particularly in 2021 and most recently in December 2022, though these problems were generally resolved promptly according to tenant reports. More concerning is a recent indoor air quality complaint from May 2024 regarding chemical vapors, which resulted in an advisory to the property management to address the issue.

In late 2023, the building underwent inspections that revealed multiple Class C violations related to self-closing doors throughout the building, affecting apartments 7, 8, 12, 14, 18, and 22, though some of these violations were subsequently closed. The building's emergency exit doors also received attention, with violations noted in early 2024 regarding encumbrances in public hall areas. While the property has maintained an active rodent inspection record with consistent passing results from 2018 through 2024, there was a rat activity report in 2012 that was subsequently addressed.

All bedbug reports from 2020 through 2024 show zero infested units, indicating effective pest management. The building has faced some regulatory challenges, including active violations issued in 2023 regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2020, 2021, and 2022, though some of these were dismissed in April 2025. Multiple 311 service requests and HPD complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and pests were filed in 2019, though access for inspection was not granted in some cases. The property has generally maintained good compliance with housing maintenance codes, with most violations being addressed and closed, though there remains at least one open violation as of the latest data, concerning a door refit needed in the 6th story bulkhead area.
