231 East 62nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10065

The four-story, two-family house at 231 East 62nd Street, owned by El Lowe, was constructed in 1875 and is located in New York City's Upper East Side. The property has experienced two notable issues in recent years, with the most concerning being a heat and hot water emergency reported in October 2024 that was closed without inspection access to verify the conditions.

This follows a similar pattern of heat-related complaints in 2024, suggesting potential ongoing infrastructure challenges. While the building has a documented history of rodent sightings, with complaints filed in March 2022 and October 2024, both incidents resulted in inspections that found no violations and the property passed subsequent rodent inspections in July 2025, demonstrating effective pest control measures.

The building's maintenance record shows consistent compliance with housing regulations, particularly regarding rodent inspections, which have been conducted regularly since at least 2012 and have all resulted in "Passed" ratings. The property has maintained its basic housing standards throughout these inspections, with no violations recorded in the past 11 years. However, the pattern of heat and hot water issues in the most recent years stands out as the primary concern for residents, despite the building's generally good track record in other maintenance areas.
