210 West 18th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

The 23-story, 47-unit building at 210 West 18th Street in Chelsea, owned by Penelope Marzulli and constructed in 1929, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, there is an active violation as of May 2024 regarding non-compliance with a Commissioner's Order requiring a 100% hands-on inspection of all glass panels throughout the building.

The property has also faced various maintenance challenges since 2020, including building shaking concerns, multiple failures to maintain exterior walls and facades, and several elevator-related violations requiring attention. A concerning incident in November 2020 involved unsecured glass panels at the building's terrace, leading to a requirement for inspection and repair documentation. The building's systems and safety compliance have been under regular scrutiny, with recent inspections showing generally positive results for pest control (no bedbug infestations reported since 2019 and passed rodent inspections since 2011).

However, there were specific periods requiring attention to safety protocols, such as a Construction Safety Compliance action in July 2021 and an egress-related complaint in 2019. The property has maintained an active record of permits being issued for work throughout the years, with multiple exterior work permits issued between 2019 and 2021. While many violations and complaints have been resolved through proper channels, including inspections and permits, the current active violation regarding glass panel inspections remains a significant outstanding issue as of 2025.
