200 East 21St Street, Manhattan, NY 10010

The 20-story, 67-unit residential building at 200 East 21st Street in Gramercy, owned by Kelly Liao, was completed in 2016 and is currently subject to several important regulatory inspections and treatments. Most notably, the building has experienced recurring rodent-related issues, with the most recent DOHMH rat sighting complaint in January 2023 resulting in violations requiring follow-up inspections, and multiple bait applications throughout 2023 and 2025. The property has undergone numerous inspections under Local Law 188/17, with compliance inspections in July and August 2024 showing no violations, and multiple tenant safety inspections in 2023 also returning no violations.

While there were two Housing Maintenance Code violations noted in April 2021 concerning bedbug report filings, these appear to have been resolved, as subsequent annual filings (2021-2024) show zero infested units. The building did have some issues in 2023 related to external low-pressure inspection filings for 2018 and 2019, though these violations were ultimately dismissed. The property has consistently maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2021, showing no documented infestations or re-infestations during this period.

Multiple Department of Buildings permits were issued between 2019-2020 for various construction-related work, including new building (NB) and exterior work (EW) permits. The building's most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 resulted in a passing grade, suggesting improvements in pest management, though it's worth noting this followed extensive baiting treatments in 2023. The property's documented history shows active management of both pest control and regulatory compliance, with most recent inspections indicating a lack of significant violation patterns, though the recurring nature of rodent issues remains a notable concern.
