615 East 168th Street, Bronx, NY 10456
The 5-story, 60-unit residential building at 615 East 168th Street in Morrisania, owned by Josh Hubi and constructed in 1928 as a New Law tenement, has experienced significant heat and hot water reliability issues in early 2025. Between January and March 2025, there were nine emergency heat/hot water complaints, with some requiring HPD inspections.
While some complaints were resolved, others were either duplicates of existing issues or resulted in HPD being unable to gain access for inspection. The building has also faced multiple violations related to heating system access and inadequate heat supply, particularly affecting apartments 4E and 4F, and hot water issues in these same units. A December 2024 inspection revealed several code violations in apartment 4E, including pest infestations, missing carbon monoxide detectors, and various safety concerns, though some violations were subsequently certified as corrected by January 2025.
The building's maintenance history shows previous concerns including a failed rodent inspection in 2022, while recent rodent inspections in 2023-2024 passed, indicating improved pest management. Historical records from 2019 show issues with building shaking and bathroom ceiling disrepair, though these were resolved. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past six years, with no reported cases since 2019.
