1201 Findlay Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The 5-story, 1921 building at 1201 Findlay Avenue in Concourse Village, currently owned by Consolato Cicciu, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, particularly concerning heating and water systems. The most recent incidents include plumbing water supply issues in July 2024 (which received no violations), and a verified heat/hot water problem in January 2023 that was corrected. Between January and February 2022, there were multiple heat/hot water complaints affecting the entire building, with at least one instance where inspectors were denied access to verify conditions.

The building has a documented history of heating system problems, with similar complaints recorded in December 2019 and throughout 2020, including an emergency heat/hot water issue in January 2020 that received no violations upon inspection. The property has also faced other infrastructure challenges, including plumbing issues (sink/basin) in July 2020, and significant complaints in December 2019 regarding water leaks and ceiling conditions in Apartment 524, which affected multiple rooms. This incident resulted in several housing violations, including one concerning inadequate hot water at all fixtures.

More recently, in 2024, there is an active violation regarding the failure to file an acceptable amended cycle 9A report for facade safety verification. Despite these various maintenance challenges, the building has consistently passed rodent inspections since 2021, with only one rat activity report in 2020, and shows no recorded bedbug infestations in the past five years, with all recent bedbug reports indicating zero infested units. While the building has had its share of maintenance issues requiring attention, recent years show improved consistency in addressing complaints, though the active facade violation from 2024 and the history of heating system problems remain notable concerns.
