312 East 165th Street, Bronx, NY 10456

The three-story, four-unit tenement building at 312 East 165th Street in Concourse Village, owned by Isaac Pasik and constructed in 1928, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Between 2021 and 2023, the property faced multiple infrastructure challenges, including heating and light outages, water supply problems, and various plumbing and electrical issues, with some complaints being closed due to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) being unable to gain access for inspection.

The building has also shown recurring pest problems, including reports of mold and multiple pest-related complaints in March 2021, though no violations were issued following inspections. More recently, in 2024, several Housing Maintenance Code violations were recorded and subsequently addressed, including issues with building maintenance such as fire retardant material, self-closing doors, and wall paint requirements in public areas.

The building's rodent control records from 2023-2025 indicate frequent rat activity, with multiple bait applications and compliance inspections showing persistent problems, though a "passed" result was recorded in April 2024. An emergency safety complaint regarding smoke detectors was documented in June 2021, and while bedbug reports were filed annually from 2021-2024 showing no current infestations, there were previous violations noted regarding failing to file annual reports. The building's most recent documentation from 2025 shows no active bedbug infestations, though rodent activity remains a significant ongoing concern, with multiple inspections confirming their presence as recently as May 2025.
