213 West 14th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

213 West 14th Street is a 5-story, 8-unit residential building located in Chelsea, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Maximino Vazquez. The building has a notable pattern of open Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations related to bedbug reporting over the past four years (2021-2024), specifically failing to file the required annual bedbug reports as mandated by HPD rules.

While these violations don't directly indicate an active infestation, they represent non-compliance with important pest management protocols. The building has experienced one rodent-related complaint in November 2018, though this was closed with no specific resolution noted in the records. However, it's worth noting that the property has consistently passed multiple rodent inspections between 2010 and 2024, including a recent inspection in October 2024, suggesting effective pest management in this area.

The building had a permit issued in May 2019 for unspecified work, as per the Department of Buildings records. The property's maintenance history shows periodic attention to both bedbug reporting requirements and pest management, with the most recent rodent inspection indicating current compliance in that area. The recurring bedbug reporting violations raise some concern about the building's adherence to HMC requirements, though there is no evidence of active bedbug issues based solely on these violations.
