368 West 23rd Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

368 West 23rd Street is a 6-story, 8-unit residential building in Chelsea, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Bradley Mancuso. The building has experienced multiple food establishment-related issues in recent years, with three complaints filed in late 2024 involving food spoilage, pest problems, and animal presence, all of which were closed by the NYC Health Department. There is a notable pattern of pest-related complaints, with six similar complaints recorded between 2022-2023, though these were all administratively closed.

The property has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status since 2019, showing zero instances of infestation or re-infestation. Recent building maintenance concerns include two sidewalk shed-related complaints in March 2025, with one resulting in an Oath Violation. The building has multiple active violations regarding the failure to file required External Low-Pressure Inspection reports for the years 2018-2023, issued in September 2023, though these violations do not appear to have directly impacted resident safety. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent passing inspection in October 2024, and a notable history of compliance, having passed all inspections since 2019 except for one failure in 2018.

The building has also been properly managed regarding restroom compliance issues, with an Oath Violation served in 2019 for non-compliance with Local Law 79/16 related to public facility signage and restroom access. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and updates, with several plumbing (PL) and electrical (EW) permits issued between 2018-2024, including recent work as of August 2024. This suggests ongoing investment in building infrastructure and systems maintenance. While there have been various health and safety complaints recorded, most have been addressed promptly and there is no current pattern of recurring issues that would significantly impact resident quality of life.
