235 West 14th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

The 5-story, 26-unit residential building at 235 West 14th Street in Chelsea, owned by Jonathan Ohebshelon, has a mixed operating history since its 1920 construction. Most recently, in May 2025, there was a complaint regarding work done without a permit in an occupied multiple dwelling, which was referred to the Department of Consumer Affairs.

The building has faced some environmental maintenance issues, most notably in 2019 when violations were recorded concerning the exterior walls and facade conditions, including hairline cracks, peeling paint, and open joints at the parapet coping stone, for which a fine of $620 was imposed and resolved. The property has maintained a notable record of pest control success, with no reported bedbug infestations across all annual filings from 2019 through late 2024, consistently showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.

However, there has been some rodent activity noted, with a rat activity inspection in October 2024, though the subsequent November 2024 compliance inspection resulted in a "Passed" status. The building's permit history shows some activity, including an issued permit in July 2019 for work under job number 123779811. Historical rodent inspection records from 2010 through 2024 indicate generally good conditions, with multiple "Passed" results before the recent October 2024 inspection.
