590 East 167th Street, Bronx, NY 10456

590 East 167th Street is a 4-story, 9-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Manuel Abreu. The building has experienced recurring heating issues throughout 2024, with multiple 311 complaints regarding heat and hot water problems affecting either the entire building or individual apartments, particularly between October and December 2024. Significant maintenance concerns have emerged, including two active Class C violations for rodent infestations in apartments 1E and 3W, and a pending violation for failure to file the 2023 external low-pressure inspection.

Apartment 3W has documented past issues with mold, plumbing, electrical problems, and water damage to both the kitchen and bathroom areas, though some of these violations have been addressed and closed. The building's infrastructure was tested with multiple power outage incidents in August 2024, and there were also complaints about unsanitary conditions including mold. The property has undergone several inspections and compliance checks in recent years, with rodent inspections showing consistent passing results from 2015 through 2022, suggesting some improvement in pest control measures.

Bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 indicate zero infestations or eradication efforts during these periods, which is a positive sign. The building was subject to various department inspections in 2023, including compliance with Local Law 188/17 and tenant safety inspections, with results showing no violations at the time of inspection. While the building experienced numerous maintenance issues throughout 2024, many complaints were resolved promptly, though some violations remain open as of October 2023. The property's recent history suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and maintenance, particularly regarding heating and water infrastructure, while also demonstrating some progress in pest control and compliance with safety regulations.
