113 West 17th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011

The 113 West 17th Street building is a 6-story, 35-unit commercial altered Class A property located in Chelsea, built in 1911 and currently owned by Sarah Grey. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over recent years, with the most pressing being an open violation from April 2024 related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report.

The building underwent multiple emergency inspections in 2021, addressing issues with plumbing (water supply), fire escape safety, and door conditions; all these complaints were eventually closed with no violations issued. There is a record of various safety inspections and compliance checks in 2023, all resulting in either "No Violation Warranted" or "Compliance Inspection Performed," though there was one instance where the inspector was unable to gain access. The property has a concerning history of construction-related compliance issues, particularly in 2021, when multiple complaints were filed regarding work without proper permits and the presence of combustible debris during roof work.

The Department of Buildings issued several citations related to this work, though most have been resolved. Plumbing system maintenance appears to be an ongoing concern, with multiple complaints and work permits issued between 2019-2022, including a significant inspection in June 2023 that resulted in a Stop Work Order being fully rescinded. The building has maintained good pest management practices, with zero reported bedbug infestations in the past five years, and has consistently passed routine rodent inspections since 2010.
