1205 College Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
The 48-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 1205 College Avenue, owned by Jacob Weinreb, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years, with particular concerns emerging in 2025. Current open complaints include unsanitary conditions related to pests (open as of June 2025) and several water supply plumbing issues that spanned multiple units in May 2025. The building has a history of water-related problems, with multiple violations recorded in 2024-2025, including several plumbing complaints in May 2025 that required emergency attention.
Notably, an October 2024 inspection revealed multiple violations in Apartment 3G, including problems with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, water leaks, mold, and bathroom ceiling repairs. The building's elevator system has generated recurring concerns, with multiple complaints about single device operation and no alternate service between 2023 and 2025. There are also active violations related to the exterior building envelope, including an unresolved Cycle 9A unsafe report filed in November 2024.
The property has shown some improvement regarding rodent control, passing recent inspections in 2025, though there were multiple instances of rat activity and failed inspections in 2024. The building's bedbug reports from 2021-2024 indicate minimal infestation history, with only one reported case in 2021 that was successfully eradicated. While the building has numerous violations and complaints on record, many have been addressed or closed, though several key issues, particularly regarding plumbing and safety systems, remain unresolved as of mid-2025.
