137 East 27th Street, Manhattan, NY 10016
The three-story, two-family home at 137 East 27th Street in Kips Bay, currently owned by Howarddavid Ohayon, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past several years, with emergency complaints filed in both October 2024 and November 2022 regarding lack of service throughout the entire building. The October 2024 complaint was particularly concerning as HPD was unable to gain access to the building for inspection.
Other significant incidents include a power outage in February 2022 and a pest issue reported in February 2019, though in both cases no violations were found following inspections. The property has been subject to two complaints regarding building permits and illegal after-hours work in 2020 and 2022 respectively, but no violations were warranted upon inspection.
Positive indicators for the building include a clean record with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years (at least from 2021-2024), and successful rodent inspections showing compliance in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2022, and most recently in April 2025. The building maintenance history shows regular attention to pest control, with no infestations documented in the bedbug filings. While the recurring heat issues are notable, particularly the most recent complaint in October 2024, the building has generally maintained compliance with safety inspections and has shown improvements in recent years, as evidenced by the absence of pest infestations and successful rodent inspections through 2025.
