366 East 160th Street, Bronx, NY 10451

The three-story, 3-unit Old Law Tenement building at 366 East 160th Street in Melrose, owned by Hector Tiwari, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, Apartment 1 has had recurring water-related problems, with a heavy flow water leak complaint in August 2022 that remains under violation as of 2024, and multiple inspections revealing issues with peeling paint and mold conditions in both the bathroom and kitchen areas.

The building has also had multiple emergency maintenance calls related to heating and hot water (January 2023), window pane issues (2022 and 2021), and unsanitary conditions including confirmed pest issues in late 2021. Recent inspections from February 2024 revealed lead paint hazards in Apartment 1's ceiling areas.

The property has been subject to several regulatory inspections and violations, including two Bedbug Reporting filings showing no infestations between 2022 and 2025, though there were persistent issues with rodent activity documented between 2017 and 2022, with the most recent compliance inspection in September 2022 passing. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of moisture-related issues, including water damage and its effects on building systems, which appear to be an ongoing concern. While some violations have been addressed and closed, several remain open, indicating the need for continued monitoring of building conditions and compliance with housing maintenance codes.
