1072 Woodycrest Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452

The 52-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement at 1072 Woodycrest Avenue in Highbridge, owned by Jacob Eisenstein, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues, particularly in recent months. Between March and April 2025, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests, plumbing problems (including sink, toilet, and bathtub issues), and door/window maintenance concerns, some of which resulted in violations being issued to the property owner. More recently, between June 2025 and the present, there have been multiple emergency plumbing and unsanitary condition complaints, though specific violation details are currently unavailable in the records.

The building has faced ongoing elevator service issues, with multiple complaints about "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" between 2021 and 2025, including an active complaint from May 2025. In late 2024, the building received violations for obstruction of exit passageways and inadequate building facade maintenance. Previous inspection records from 2022-2025 indicate generally passing results for rodent inspections, with only one instance of rat activity noted in April 2021.

The building has maintained a consistent record of filing bedbug reports showing zero affected units from 2021 through 2025, suggesting effective pest management practices. Recent complaints about heat/hot water and plumbing issues, particularly in early 2025, indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, though some complaints did not warrant violations upon inspection. The property has also faced violations related to safety equipment, including smoke detectors and carbon monoxide devices, particularly in the 6th floor apartment 6B during late 2024 inspections.
