975 Cauldwell Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The three-story, three-unit building at 975 Cauldwell Avenue, owned by Franklyn Stanley, has experienced several significant maintenance issues since its construction in 1996. The most concerning recent violations, dating from July 2020, remain unresolved as of April 2024, including multiple water leak citations affecting ceilings in various rooms, broken or defective plastered surfaces, and a documented mouse infestation in the 3rd-floor apartment.

The building has also faced various maintenance challenges, with multiple HPD complaints filed in July 2020 regarding water leaks (heavy flow), heat/hot water issues, mold, pest problems, and paint/plaster concerns, several of which resulted in official violations. More positively, recent records indicate improved rodent control, with the 2024 bedbug report showing no infestations from November 2022 to October 2023, and previous rodent inspections from 2015 to 2022 passing.

The property has a documented history of regular compliance checks, with annual bedbug reporting requirements being met through 2024. A warning about possible violations requiring the filing of annual bedbug reports appears in the records for 2021-2024, though recent reports indicate no current issues. Despite these improvements, the building's unresolved water damage and maintenance violations from 2020 warrant attention, though it's worth noting that many complaints from that period were prioritized as emergencies and subsequently addressed, with the exception of the currently open violations.
