145 East Houston Street, Manhattan, NY 10002

145 East Houston Street is a 5-story, 5-unit mixed-use building constructed in 1900, currently owned by David Sohayegh, with a commercial altered Class A designation. The building has experienced several notable incidents and inspections over recent years, most significantly a plumbing-related water supply issue reported in February 2023, which was investigated by both HPD and the DOB with no violations found. In 2023, multiple violations were cited related to safety requirement postings in the public areas, including bedbug reporting, smoke detector requirements, carbon monoxide detection device requirements, and heating system keyholder information - many of which remain open as of April 2024.

The building's elevator system was investigated in 2021 following a complaint, though inspectors reported being unable to locate sufficient information during their visit. The property has maintained consistent rodent inspection compliance, passing all inspections since 2021, with only one failure noted in 2020. While there have been several public health-related complaints recorded, particularly during 2020-2021 regarding smoking and food worker hygiene, these were addressed and closed.

The building's bedbug reporting history shows consistent compliance with reporting requirements through to 2025, and recent inspections have documented zero infested units. The property also faced two vaccine mandate non-compliance complaints in late 2021, which were acknowledged by the Department of Health. Most recently, the building passed rodent inspections in February 2025, demonstrating ongoing compliance with basic health and safety requirements.
