13 East 16th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003

The 8-story, 4-unit residential building at 13 East 16th Street in Chelsea, owned by Sudhir Mehra, has been subjected to several regulatory requirements and inspections over the past decade. Most notably, the building has demonstrated proactive pest management with annual bedbug reporting since 2021, showing zero infested dwelling units in each of the filings between 2021 and 2023.

The building passed four consecutive rodent inspections between 2010 and 2014, indicating effective pest control maintenance during that period. The property has undergone several permitted improvements in recent years, particularly in 2018-2019, with multiple permits issued including plumbing and electrical work. Specific permits issued in 2019 included electrical work (EW) permits on June 25 and June 27, plumbing (PL) permits on July 5 and December 5, and alteration (AL) permits on June 27 and December 19.

It's worth noting that the building had two Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2021 and 2022 related to bedbug report filing requirements, though these violations were subsequently closed. The building's documented history suggests routine maintenance and prompt attention to regulatory requirements, with no recorded safety incidents or recurring pest issues in recent years. The property appears to be actively managed, with regular compliance checks and a systematic approach to addressing both maintenance and reporting obligations.
