132A East 65th Street, Manhattan, NY 10065

132A East 65th Street is a 15-story, 22-unit Class A residential building located in the Upper East Side, constructed in 2011 and currently owned by Richie Pootoolal. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed in April 2025, though these were not adequately investigated due to access issues. The property has shown good pest management, with no reported bedbug infestations between 2019 and 2023, and all rodent inspections, including those in 2019 and 2018, passed successfully.

Violation records indicate some administrative oversights regarding energy efficiency compliance in 2019-2021, including failures to display energy scores and submit required inspections, though some violations were eventually dismissed. Notable safety inspections in 2019 and 2020 found no violations, and while there were multiple food establishment complaints between 2019 and 2022, these were all addressed and administratively closed. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and compliance efforts, with multiple electrical and plumbing permits issued between 2019 and 2020.

Three emergency heat and hot water complaints in April 2025, all related to the entire building, represent the most recent and pressing concern. The building maintains an active status with the Department of Buildings, with an open violation from December 2021 regarding a Category 5 inspection that requires attention. While the property has generally maintained good pest control standards and passed multiple inspections, the recent heat and hot water issues suggest some ongoing infrastructure challenges. The building has successfully maintained a bedbug-free record since 2018 and has consistently passed rodent inspections during its most recent evaluations.
