321 West 21st Street, Manhattan, NY 10011
The five-story, 20-unit building at 321 West 21st Street in Chelsea, managed by 317-321 West 21 St Associates LLC, has a mixed history of maintenance and compliance issues since its construction in 1900. Most notably, the building experienced multiple heat and hot water incidents in 2019, with complaints documented for both individual apartments and the entire building, though many were closed without confirmed violations. The property has faced recurring concerns regarding unauthorized short-term rentals, with three separate complaints filed in 2020, 2022, and 2024, though inspections were marked as "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" in each case.
A recent violation related to the filing of annual bedbug reports was issued in April 2024, though this appears to have been resolved as subsequent filings through 2025 show zero infested units. The building's pest management history includes three documented instances of bedbug infestations between 2019-2020, but the most recent eight reports (2021-2025) show no infestations. The property has generally maintained good rodent control, with initial inspections in 2021, 2022, 2019, and most recently July 2025 passing without issues, though a June 2023 inspection did note rat activity.
The building experienced one unsanitary animal complaint in 2019 and a recent pigeon waste complaint in June 2025, both of which were resolved without confirmed violations. The most recent health department inspection regarding pigeons in 2025 found no violations, while previous complaints about animal conditions and heat issues in 2019 also resulted in no confirmed violations. The building's management has shown compliance with regular bedbug reporting requirements since 2020, with the most recent reports indicating effective eradication of identified infestations.
