135 West 15th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011
135 West 15th Street is a three-story, four-unit residential building in Chelsea, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Nathaniel Rahav. The building has undergone several significant construction projects over the past few years, with the most notable period of activity occurring between 2019-2021. During 2021, there were multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations related to construction safety compliance, including failure to maintain proper job site conditions, missing construction fences, and unsafe work practices, though these issues were subsequently resolved.
A notable DOB violation from November 2019 concerned unapproved work, resulting in a $620 penalty, which was later resolved. The building's more recent history shows active management of pest control issues, particularly regarding rodent activity. Between 2024 and 2025, there were multiple rodent baiting interventions and two compliance inspections, one of which (November 2024) documented rat activity.
The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations across six consecutive annual filings from 2019 to 2024. The most recent permit activity shows an issued permit in January 2024, suggesting ongoing maintenance or improvements. The building's inspection history shows a mix of compliance and violation findings, though most were effectively addressed through proper channels, and no bedbug or serious habitability issues have been recorded in recent years.
