260 West 25th Street, Manhattan, NY 10001

The 4-story, 4-unit residential building at 260 West 25th Street in Chelsea, owned by Joseph Dimattio, was constructed in 1910 and is classified as a "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS B" building. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, most notably in December 2020, though that specific problem was reported as resolved shortly after the complaint was filed.

The building has been subject to four consecutive open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2022 to 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, in violation of Section HMC A. While the most recent rodent inspection in October 2024 passed, records show consistent compliance with rodent control requirements since 2010, indicating effective management of this issue over time.

Two significant Department of Buildings complaints were filed - one in 2025 regarding debris concerns (no violation found) and one in 2019 about illegal hotel rooms (also no violation found), both of which were investigated and closed without any noted violations. While the building's history shows generally good rodent management and passing inspections, the ongoing bedbug report violation notices suggest a pattern of administrative oversights regarding this specific requirement. The absence of reported bedbug infestations in the 2021 filing period could indicate effective pest management, though it appears this was not properly documented through the required annual reports in subsequent years.
