This building has 17 recorded HPD violations, above the Chelsea average of 10.0.
The 138-unit, 6-story building at 253 West 24th Street in Chelsea, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by 253 West 24th Street LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past seven years. Most concerning are the recurring heat and hot water problems, with five documented complaints about the entire building's heating system in 2022 alone, all classified as emergencies. The building has also faced persistent mold issues, with three separate violations regarding visible mold conditions in the basement kitchen area in 2022 and 2021, designated as Class B (Hazardous) violations under Housing Maintenance Code. Boiler compliance has been a recurring issue, with four "Low Pressure Boiler Required" violations issued between 2022-2024 for failing to file external low-pressure inspections, though these were subsequently dismissed. The building has also accumulated various other violations and complaints, including 12 Class A, 13 Class B, and 4 Class C Housing Maintenance Code violations over the past seven years, along with 25 Housing Maintenance Code complaints and 26 311 Housing Service Requests.

What's in the 253 West 24 Street report
Is 253 West 24 Street rent-stabilized?
Rent stabilization caps how much your rent can rise and protects your right to renew. Here's how this building scores on the four signals that usually point to it.
Based on public NYC records. Not legal advice — verify with the DHCR (Division of Housing and Community Renewal) at apps.hcr.ny.gov.
Is 253 West 24 Street covered by Good Cause Eviction?
New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.
Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.
