Augrented Insights Report for 216 West 23rd Street

The Chelsea Hotel, located at 216 West 23rd Street in Chelsea and owned by Richard Born, is a historic 12-story building constructed in 1885. The property has experienced ongoing maintenance and operational challenges in recent years, with significant issues particularly regarding heat and hot water systems. Most recently, there are active concerns as of June 2025 involving food establishment violations being addressed by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

Other recurring issues include plumbing problems, with multiple violations related to water supply and heat/hot water systems, particularly affecting apartments 1022 and 1028. The building has an open inspection violation from March 2022 concerning water closet obstructions. The hotel has faced various building systems challenges, including ventilation issues (2023), pigeon waste concerns (2024), and multiple maintenance requests regarding flooring, windows, doors, and sanitary conditions.

There are also several active and recent complaints regarding potential illegal alterations and work without proper permits, though inspections did not always result in violations. A significant environmental control board violation was issued in 2023 concerning unauthorized building modifications, with a $2500 penalty. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained compliance with rodent inspections, passing all recent checks from 2021 to 2025. The building's management has submitted regular bedbug reports (2020-2024) indicating zero infestation cases during the reported periods.
