132 West Houston Street, Manhattan, NY 10012

The three-story, two-unit Old Law Tenement building at 132 West Houston Street, owned by Dh East 9 Llc, has demonstrated a concerning pattern of heat and hot water issues over the past two years, with emergency complaints filed in both December 2024 (affecting the entire building) and January 2024 (affecting an individual apartment), though both issues were reportedly resolved through HPD interventions. The building has been in compliance with rodent control measures, passing inspections in 2024, 2023, 2022, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2012, and 2011, suggesting effective pest management practices.

However, there have been significant administrative issues regarding bedbug reporting requirements, with violations documented in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in 2024, though the most recent bedbug reports from May 2024 indicate no units were infested during the 2022-2023 reporting period. The building experienced mouse sightings in 2018, which triggered a DOHMH review and inspection.

Recent Department of Buildings enforcement actions in March 2025 resulted in Oath Violations being served, though the specific nature of these violations is not detailed in the records. The property has maintained a generally good record of rodent inspections since 2016, regularly passing all inspections. While the building has undergone multiple bedbug reporting inspections, the most recent reports show improved conditions, with no current infestations, though this marks a change from previous periods where some units required eradication efforts.
