48 West 17th Street, Manhattan, NY 10011
The 7-unit, 5-story building at 48 West 17th Street in Chelsea, owned by Aaron Hoffman and constructed in 1890, has experienced several significant events regarding maintenance and compliance in recent years. The property currently has an open Class A Housing Maintenance Code violation from April 2024 related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report, a recurring issue since 2021 that has resulted in multiple violations across different years (2021-2024).
An illegal hotel room complaint was filed in June 2025 and resulted in a violation being served on June 20, 2025. The building has also received a violation in June 2023 regarding a failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection, which remains active as of this date.
On the positive side, the building's recent bedbug reports (2022-2024) show consistent documentation with no reported infested units, and while there was a smoking violation recorded in May 2022 that was closed in June 2024, this seems to have been an isolated incident. The building's rodent inspection history shows a pattern of passing inspections from 2010 through 2018, though there was one failure noted in June 2018 for "Other Reasons." The property has successfully maintained its bedbug management program since 2021 by reporting zero infested units, despite the ongoing violations related to filing requirements.
