1201 Ogden Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452

1201 Ogden Avenue, a 6-story, 59-unit "New Law Tenement" built in 1929 and currently owned by Yechiel Weinberger, has experienced recurring maintenance issues in 2025, particularly with heating and sanitation. The building has had multiple heat/hot water system complaints from January to March 2025, with three emergency complaints in March alone, though most were resolved promptly with HPD verification.

A more recent complaint about unsanitary conditions and pests was documented in May 2025, but the inspector was unable to gain access for an inspection. The building's elevator system has been a significant ongoing concern, with multiple complaints about "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" recorded in 2025, and prior violations dating back to 2018 suggesting persistent elevator maintenance issues.

The property has also faced various infrastructure challenges, including active violations from a November 2024 inspection regarding defective self-closing doors at compactor closets on multiple floors, and a September 2024 violation concerning mold in Bathroom 3I. Rodent inspections throughout 2024-2025 indicate sporadic rodent activity, with bait applications recorded in January, April, and throughout 2025, though some inspections were marked as "Passed." While the building has maintained a bedbug-free record according to the annual reports from 2019 to 2025, the persistent issues with heat/hot water systems, elevator reliability, and sanitation suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's management has at times struggled with access issues for inspections, as evidenced by multiple HPD inspections where access was not granted.
