811 Fox Street, Bronx, NY 10459

811 Fox Street is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building located in Longwood, Bronx, and built in 1907. The property, currently owned by Jose Surarez, has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly related to sanitation and structural conditions. Most notably, in April 2025, the building received multiple complaints involving unsanitary conditions including mold, pests, and flooring issues, with HPD inspections resulting in violations for pests and flooring problems, though the mold complaint did not result in any violations.

A plumbing issue with the bathtub/shower was reported and resolved in December 2023. The building has persistent issues with pest management, evidenced by multiple complaints and violations between 2022-2025, including an open violation from 2024 regarding failure to file the required annual bedbug report. While rodent inspections between 2010-2018 showed generally good results with most passing, the June 2018 inspection failed for unspecified reasons.

The Department of Buildings shows a recent work permit issued in October 2023 for exterior work (Job #240356422), suggesting some maintenance activity is ongoing. The building's historical records show a pattern of pest and sanitation issues, with multiple 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code Violations over the past several years. The property has documented violations related to pest control and bedbug reporting requirements in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024, though the specific nature of these violations has not been detailed in the records. The building's age and classification as a New Law Tenement suggest it may be subject to specific regulatory requirements which the owner has struggled to consistently meet, particularly regarding pest management protocols.
