239 East 14th Street, Manhattan, NY 10003
239 East 14th Street is a 5-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Laurence Guttman, located in the Gramercy neighborhood. The building has experienced recurring rodent-related issues over recent years, with multiple complaints and inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) showing rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents in 2024.
A food establishment complaint regarding rodents/insects/garbage was filed in September 2024 and closed in January 2025. The property has maintained generally good records of rodent inspections, with the most recent inspections in 2025 and late 2024 resulting in "Passed" ratings, though there was confirmed rat activity in April 2024. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various safety concerns, including a boiler violation in August 2021 that was served as an Oath Violation, and an Environmental Control Board violation requiring chimney cleaning and sealing that was resolved.
Significant improvements have been made regarding pest management, as evidenced by the bedbug reporting records showing zero infested units for the last four reporting periods (2021-2025). The building had violations related to annual bedbug report filings in 2021 and 2022, though these have since been resolved. Compliance with elevator maintenance requirements was addressed, with active violations for failure to file 2017 inspection/test results noted in 2019, though other related violations from 2019 were subsequently dismissed based on corrected deficiencies.
