51 Charles Street, Manhattan, NY 10014
51 Charles Street is a 3-story, 5-unit building located in New York City's West Village neighborhood, constructed in 1880 and currently owned by Edward Valentine. The building has experienced several notable pest management and safety-related events over recent years, particularly concerning bedbug reporting compliance. Between 2021 and 2024, the property received four consecutive violations regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations, though subsequent filings from 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 indicate zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.
The building faced two significant Department of Buildings (DOB) violations in 2021 related to unsafe roof conditions, including an improperly secured wooden fence, resulting in penalties that were later resolved. The property has demonstrated consistent rodent control compliance, passing all annual inspections from 2017 to 2025, with only one instance of bait application required in 2020. Recent building maintenance records show attention to safety regulations, including a 2024 violation related to the failure to file 2023 external low-pressure inspection documentation, though this was ultimately dismissed in December 2024.
A 311 service request regarding unsanitary conditions and pests was filed in October 2022, but inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the complaint. The building's permit history shows active management, with a plumbing permit issued in October 2019. While the building has had its share of regulatory challenges, recent rodent inspection results and bedbug reporting compliance suggest improved management of pest-related issues.
