325 East Houston Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

325 East Houston Street is a 6-story, 17-unit New Law tenement building located in the Lower East Side, owned by Thomas Yu and constructed in 1920. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, particularly between 2018-2021, with multiple HPD complaints filed and subsequently closed after tenants reported restoration of services.

Between March 2018 and 2019, there were also two specific violations noted: one regarding door/window maintenance in Apartment 2 (resolved May 2018) and another concerning gas leak procedural notices in common areas (resolved March 2018). The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past six reporting periods from 2019-2024, with no units reported as infested or requiring eradication. Recent records from 2022-2025 show consistent passing grades in rodent inspections, with eight successful inspections conducted between 2022 and March 2025, indicating good pest management practices.

The most recent building permit issued was in August 2018 for unspecified work under job number 123129836. While the building has experienced multiple heat and hot water outages in the past, the frequency of such complaints appears to have decreased post-2021, though it should be noted that many complaints were resolved promptly once services were restored. The current state of the building as of 2025 shows regular maintenance of basic services, with particular attention to pest control, though historical service interruptions suggest potential infrastructure challenges related to heating and hot water systems.
