120 West 17th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011
The 4-unit, 3-story building at 120 West 17th Street in Chelsea, owned by Luis Rivera, was constructed in 1920 and has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. The property currently has multiple open violations regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024, as noted in Housing Maintenance Code violations.
There are also concerning active violations related to external low-pressure inspections, with multiple failures to file reports from 2018 through 2023, including the most recent violation issued in September 2024. The building has experienced persistent rodent issues, as evidenced by multiple compliance inspections showing rat activity and bait application between 2023 and 2025.
The most recent inspections in 2025 (May, April, and January) continue to show evidence of rodent activity or the need for bait application. While the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene conducted a rat sighting investigation in August 2023 and found no violations at that time, the recurring rodent issues and open violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and pest management.
