131 West 132nd Street, Manhattan, NY 10027
131 West 132nd Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building in Harlem, constructed in 1888 and currently owned by Danna Elya. The property has experienced several notable issues in recent years, with the most significant being an active Environmental Control Board violation from September 2024, alleging illegal use as an emergency shelter for homeless youth contrary to its certificate of occupancy, with a $2,500 penalty imposed.
The building's maintenance history shows consistent bedbug reporting compliance from 2020 to present, with no reported infestations in the past three filing periods (2022-2025), suggesting effective pest management practices. The property has faced challenges with rodent control, evidenced by varying inspection results between 2022 and 2025, including instances of rat activity in 2022 and 2024, though most recent inspections (2024-2025) have passed.
There have also been two Department of Buildings complaints in recent years: one in March 2023 (access denied on second attempt) and another in September 2024 (resulting in an Oath violation). A 2021 housing maintenance violation regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports was noted, but subsequent filings indicate compliance with this requirement. While the building has experienced some maintenance and compliance issues, the most pressing current concern appears to be the illegal occupancy violation from 2024, which carries both financial penalties and potential safety implications for residents.
