1124 Fox Street, Bronx, NY 10459

1124 Fox Street is a three-story, four-unit residential building located in Longwood and owned by Ejikeme Irozuru. The building, constructed in 1910, is currently facing significant issues with heating/hot water systems, as evidenced by multiple emergency complaints in December 2024 affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

These recent heating problems appear to be part of an ongoing pattern, as similar complaints were also documented in 2019. The building has persistent rodent issues, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2022-2025, though recent bait applications (most recently in March 2025) suggest active attempts at pest control. The property has multiple open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2020-2024, and there appear to be unresolved compliance issues from 2019 that have resulted in significant Environmental Control Board fines, totaling $90,000 across various violations.

Historical violations from 2019 included multiple safety concerns in apartment 3, such as inadequate heat, missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and hot water supply issues, though these were subsequently closed. The building also experienced various infrastructure and safety concerns in 2019, including electrical wiring inspections, gas supply issues, and concerns about potential illegal conversions. Despite numerous complaints and violations, many inspections have either shown no violations or resulted in closed cases, though the recurrence of certain issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
