226 East 32nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10016

226 East 32nd Street is a 4-story, 4-unit residential building constructed in 1910 in the Kips Bay neighborhood. The property, currently owned by Gideon Blumenthal, has undergone several significant events over the past decade. Most recently, in December 2024, there was a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene complaint regarding indoor air quality with a sewage odor, for which the property management received an advisory notice.

The building received three Class A Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 related to the annual bedbug report filing requirement, though the most recent bedbug reports from 2024 show zero infested units, suggesting proper management of this issue. The property was subject to multiple complaints in 2018 regarding illegal storefront signs and hotel room violations, though these complaints were either unsubstantiated or resulted in Oath violations. The building has maintained a good overall condition, with regular rodent inspections since 2010 showing consistent passing results.

There were three Environmental Control Board violations in 2018-2019 related to work without permits and failure to certify corrections, though one was resolved with a penalty of $3,125 and another was still active with a penalty of $1,280. The property has demonstrated proper pest management practices, as evidenced by the consistent zero counts for infested, eradicated, and re-infested units in the recent bedbug reports from 2019 through 2024. The most recent rodent inspection in February 2025 also passed, continuing the building's history of maintaining sanitary conditions.
