415 East 154th Street, Bronx, NY 10455
415 East 154th Street is a 21-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement building located in the Melrose neighborhood, built in 1912 and currently owned by Jessica Clemente. The building has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues in recent years, with five emergency complaints registered in 2025-2024 alone, all affecting the entire building. Despite these recurring problems, HPD has usually found these issues corrected upon follow-up inspections, though there were instances in 2024 where they could not gain access to the apartments during their inspections.
The building has also faced various maintenance challenges, with violations documented through 2024 including problems with self-closing doors, inadequate heating and hot water systems (notably affecting apartment 4B), and issues with bulkhead maintenance. While there was one rodent sighting reported in 2021 and multiple baiting activities noted in 2017, recent inspections in 2023-2024 showed the building passing rodent inspections. The property has maintained a zero record for bedbug infestations over the past five years (2019-2024), except for two isolated cases in 2018-2019 for which remediation was confirmed. An environmental violation regarding a rear retaining wall crack was recorded in 2018, with a $500 penalty that has since been resolved.
The building's violation history shows a pattern of addressing maintenance issues promptly, with most violations being certified as corrected within months of being issued. Significant repairs and improvements have been documented in recent years, including addressing bathroom ceiling issues in apartments 4A and 5A, and various plumbing and heating system upgrades. The property has maintained regular compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, consistently showing no active infestations or confirmed cases in recent years. This comprehensive history suggests ongoing attention to building maintenance and resident concerns, particularly regarding heating systems, which have been the most frequent cause of tenant complaints in recent years.
