144 9th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10011
The four-story, 16-unit Old Law Tenement building at 144 9th Avenue in Chelsea, built in 1910, has experienced recurring maintenance challenges, particularly related to heat and hot water systems. Between late 2021 and early 2022, there were multiple emergency complaints about heat/hot water issues, with at least five separate incidents reported, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.
The most recent heating-related complaint from December 2022 remains open as of now. In late 2024 and early 2025, the building has faced pest control issues, with a recent unsanitary condition complaint regarding pests submitted in December 2024, which was closed due to lack of access for inspection. The building also has a noted rodent control issue, with multiple bait applications recorded between 2024 and early 2025, and rat activity confirmed during inspections in late 2024 and early 2025.
The property has had several code compliance matters, including three Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements between 2019 and 2024 that were subsequently closed, and multiple safety-related violations documented in 2021 regarding smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detection, and gas leak procedures, all of which appear to have been addressed. An electrical wiring issue in the basement was documented in February 2021, leading to a $800 penalty, but this violation was dismissed by December of the same year. The building's most recent bedbug reports from 2022-2024 indicate zero infested or re-infested units, suggesting effective management of this particular issue.
