1350 Ogden Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452

1350 Ogden Avenue, a 5-story, 29-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1914 and currently owned by Cecilia Ferro, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years, particularly in 2025. Most notably, there were multiple heat and hot water-related complaints in January 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with some complaints being confirmed as duplicates of existing issues. The building has also faced persistent plumbing issues, with eight emergency water supply-related complaints in June 2025 alone, and a concerning pattern of water-related problems, including heavy leaks and general water issues recorded earlier in January 2025.

The building's systems have shown recurring deficiencies in heat and hot water provision, with violations and complaints spanning multiple inspection periods. Apartment 3C has been the focal point of multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations, including problems with heating, hot water, pest infestation, and defective safety equipment like smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though many of these violations were eventually certified as corrected by December 2024. The building's mechanical systems have faced scrutiny, with a Department of Buildings inspection in April 2021 resulting in violations related to boiler maintenance and safety, which remain active with an associated $3,125 penalty.

Rodent activity has been documented through several inspections between 2023 and 2025, though recent inspections in June 2025 have shown improvement, with the building passing the initial inspection. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record over the past five reporting periods from 2019 to 2024, showing zero infested or re-infested units. Despite these ongoing maintenance challenges, recent inspections have shown some progress, particularly with rodent control measures, though systemic issues with heating, water supply, and building systems remain a significant concern. The property's historical data indicates long-standing maintenance needs, though there has been some recent pattern of improved response and resolution to certain types of complaints.
