291 7th Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10001
The 11-story, 8-unit building at 291 7th Avenue in Chelsea, owned by Kosha Diaz and constructed in 1907, has undergone several significant events in recent years. Most notably, there have been multiple Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints in 2025 regarding food establishment issues, including an active complaint about rodents and insects that was filed in May 2025. The building underwent inspections and received various violation notices between 2018-2022, including concerns about construction practices by JEPOL CONSTRUCTION INC in 2022 regarding inadequate design drawings and improper installation of scaffolding.
The elevator system has been a recurring area of concern, with violations issued in September 2019 for failing to correct defects identified in a 2017 inspection. Despite these issues, the building has maintained a record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infested units or need for eradication across multiple annual filings from 2019 through 2024. Recent rodent inspections in January 2025 have passed, though this may be tempered by the more recent complaints filed in May 2025.
The building's ventilation system has been subject to three separate complaints about illegal or improper exhaust systems between 2019 and 2024, with the most recent investigation in 2024 finding no violations. While there are several active DOB violations from 2020-2021 noted in the records, specific details are not provided. The property has consistently filed its annual bedbug reports showing zero infestations from 2017 to 2024, and has passed all rodent inspections conducted between 2010 and 2025, demonstrating generally good pest management practices.
