326 West 17th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011
The five-story, 12-unit Old Law Tenement at 326 West 17th Street in Chelsea, built in 1910 and currently owned by Mildred Delrio, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in recent months, with complaints filed in December 2024 and January 2025 affecting the entire building. The building has an extensive history of maintenance and code violations, including two open violations from December 2024 concerning the improper posting of smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector requirements, which had also been cited in 2018. Following a 2021 fire incident that caused significant roof damage, multiple construction-related violations were recorded, including an improperly installed temporary rooftop structure and building stability concerns.
While these violations were ultimately resolved, the fire incident led to several months of construction work and associated regulatory scrutiny. The property has maintained consistent bedbug reporting compliance since 2019, with no reported infestations in the past five years. Recent inspections passed in 2024 confirm improved rodent control, marking the first successful inspection since 2021.
Historical records show a pattern of inspection access issues, particularly regarding heat-related complaints and several DOB inspections in 2021-2022. The building's heat and hot water system has shown persistent problems, as evidenced by recent emergency complaints. While most historical violations have been resolved, the pattern of recurring heat-related issues and the presence of open violations from 2024 warrant attention. The building's infrastructure appears to have stabilized since the 2021 fire repairs, though periodic maintenance issues continue to arise, particularly regarding life safety system requirements and building systems.
