401 West 22nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10011
The 8-story, 57-unit residential building at 401 West 22nd Street in Chelsea, owned by Bernard Friedman and constructed in 1999, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there have been multiple problems with heat and hot water systems, including a recent complaint in October 2024 affecting the entire building, and several incidents between 2019 and 2024 involving both building-wide and individual unit outages. Electrical issues have also occurred, with an emergency lighting failure reported in January 2024.
The building has faced persistent rodent-related challenges, with multiple DOHMH complaints between 2019 and 2024, including mouse and rat sightings, and conditions attracting rodents. The most recent rodent inspection in October 2024 passed compliance, though earlier inspections in 2024 showed failed results for other reasons. The building's recent history shows significant facade maintenance activity, particularly in 2018-2019, when penalties were imposed for failure to maintain proper pedestrian protection and inadequate tenant protection plans during work. Between 2020 and 2022, multiple Department of Buildings violations were issued, including fines for not certifying corrections to immediately hazardous conditions, though many of these were ultimately dismissed.
The property has maintained an active bedbug management program, with all recent annual reports (2020-2024) showing zero infestation cases. The building experienced some construction-related safety concerns in 2020-2022, including issues with scaffolding and sidewalk sheds, though inspections generally found no violations at the time of inspection. Recent Housing Maintenance Code complaints have varied, with some being closed due to lack of access for inspection, while others were resolved with no violations found. The property has demonstrated ongoing efforts to address maintenance issues as they arise, though the pattern of recurring problems suggests persistent building system challenges.
