222 West 21st Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

222 West 21st Street is a 5-story, 10-unit residential building located in Chelsea, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Wycliffe Chelsea LLC. The building has experienced recurring rodent-related issues between 2018 and 2020, with multiple complaints about sightings and conditions potentially attracting rodents.

However, all these complaints were thoroughly investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which found no violations and confirmed the property passed inspection each time. Since these initial complaints, there has been a significant positive shift in the building's pest management, evidenced by the absence of rodent complaints or sightings in recent years. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent eight inspections from 2021 through mid-2025 all passing without issues.

This demonstrates consistent adherence to pest control standards. The property has also maintained a good record regarding bedbug infestations, with reports from 2020 to 2025 showing either zero infestations or only one unit affected in the 2021-2022 period, which was subsequently eradicated. The building's management has maintained compliance with all health inspections, as shown by the regular passing of both rodent and bedbug inspections, suggesting effective ongoing pest management practices.
