800 Fox Street, Bronx, NY 10459

The 5-story, 19-unit residential building at 800 Fox Street in Longwood, owned by Salvatore Gigante Jr, has experienced recurring issues with heating and hot water availability throughout the building, particularly evident during a cluster of complaints in April 2023, with seven separate reports of heating problems in that month alone. More recent data shows that an infestation of cockroaches was officially noted in apartment 2C as of April 29, 2023.

The building has a history of safety compliance issues, most notably in 2021 when multiple violations were recorded regarding window guards in apartments 3A and 5D, and unauthorized modifications to fire escape access. Between 2019 and 2021, the building underwent several rodent inspections, with varying results including both passed inspections and rat activity detections, though records show bait was applied during some inspections.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to pest control, with systematic reporting indicating official inspections consistently noting zero bedbug infestations since 2019, and documenting the eradication of previous infestations in 2019. A comprehensive review of the Heat and Hot Water service requests shows a pattern of heating system issues between 2022 and 2023, though most of these complaints were subsequently resolved or closed without violations being issued. The building has maintained good compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing consistent adherence to regulations with no reported active infestations in recent years, and demonstrating a pattern of prompt resolution when infestations were historically suspected.
