214 West 16th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

214 West 16th Street is a 5-story, 15-unit old law tenement building located in Chelsea, constructed in 1901 and currently owned by Greg Dealto. The building has maintained an active and regular bedbug reporting schedule since 2019, with the most recent report filed in April 2024 showing no infested units during the 2022-2023 period.

The property has passed all recent rodent inspections, including the most recent one in October 2024, indicating effective pest control measures are in place. However, there are notable concerns regarding the building's maintenance history, particularly in 2018 when Apartment 5W was found to have multiple violations including pest infestations (roaches and mice), and problems with safety equipment such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, along with a defective window sash.

While most of these 2018 violations are listed as "Open," programmatic inspections in subsequent years have routinely checked and cleared the bedbug compliance requirements. A more recent complaint was filed in July 2024 regarding a potentially illegal condition or occupation status, though the Department of Buildings inspector was unable to gain access for verification in November 2024. The building's overall record shows regular maintenance and compliance with major health and safety requirements, though the persistence of some historical violations suggests attention to building systems and resident safety was needed in the past.
