24 8th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10014

24 8th Avenue, a historic 3-story, 4-unit building in the West Village built in 1840 and currently owned by Ryan Mehra, has experienced several notable events in recent years. The property has had multiple Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints regarding food establishments between 2022 and 2024, including issues with kitchen areas, food establishment signage, and a food poisoning incident in February 2023, though these were generally resolved or administratively closed. A door-related emergency complaint was filed in March 2022 with the Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) department, but inspectors were unable to gain access to evaluate the reported condition.

While the building's Department of Buildings (DOB) records showed an enforcement work order violation in March 2025, this was relatively recent and active at the time of reporting. The property had one significant environmental violation in 2019 regarding OSHA training during a construction inspection. However, positive notes include the absence of bedbug infestations in the last two annual reporting periods (2024 and 2022), and consistent rodent inspection results, with the most recent inspections in 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022 all passing, although a rat activity notice was issued in June 2022.

The building's overall maintenance record shows regular attention to compliance, with most issues being addressed through proper channels. The frequent rodent inspections, both initial and compliance, suggest active management of pest control, and the absence of bedbug infestation reports in recent years is an encouraging sign of attention to resident health and comfort. The pattern of DOHMH complaints, primarily relating to food establishments, indicates ongoing monitoring of local business compliance with health regulations, though these issues appear to be isolated and properly addressed through official channels.
