217 West 14th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

217 West 14th Street is a five-story, 22-unit residential building located in Chelsea, constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Mary Bowen. The building has experienced only a few notable maintenance events over the past several years.

Most significantly, there was a sewage leak reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in August 2020, which required an advisory to the property management for resolution. A Housing Maintenance Code violation was recorded in February 2022 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, though subsequent inspections and filings show no evidence of bedbug infestations; all reports since 2020 have consistently indicated zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units. The building has maintained a strong record of rodent control, passing all inspections conducted since 2010, with the most recent inspection in October 2024 continuing this trend.

The property has undergone regular bedbug reporting since 2020, with all subsequent filings (most recently in December 2024) showing no bedbug activity. The building's maintenance history suggests that, aside from the one-time sewage issue and the bedbug reporting oversight, management has generally addressed requirements promptly, with no pattern of recurring pest management issues. Additionally, the property has maintained a consistent record of passing all rodent inspections over the past 13 years, indicating effective pest control measures are in place.
