1237 Webster Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
1237 Webster Avenue is a 16-unit, 4-story residential building located in Concourse Village, constructed in 1929 and currently owned by Asher Shafran. The property has experienced persistent heating and hot water system issues, with eight emergency complaints regarding these services reported between 2019 and 2025, including a November 2023 incident affecting the entire building which was promptly addressed by HPD.
The building has undergone several significant maintenance and safety inspections, with the most notable concerns being related to the boiler system. In 2025 alone, there were complaints about a defective/inoperative boiler, and previous inspections from 2022-2024 revealed various violations including electrical safety concerns in the maintenance storage room (April 2024), water leakage from the boiler (February 2024), and multiple issues with the building's heating system. The third-floor apartment (3A) has a documented history of maintenance violations from 2018, including issues with window guards, defective plastered surfaces, lead paint hazards, and various problems requiring repairs in the kitchen and bathroom.
The building has maintained a clean record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past six years, and rodent inspections have generally shown compliance, though a rat activity notice was issued in February 2025. Recent environmental control board violations from 2024 and 2022 resulted in fines related to electrical safety and boiler maintenance issues. While many violations have been resolved and certified, the recurring nature of heating system problems and various safety-related infractions over the years suggest ongoing maintenance challenges within the property.
