952 Aldus Street, Bronx, NY 10459

The 5-story, 19-unit tenement building at 952 Aldus Street in Longwood, owned by M Kogan and constructed in 1925, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over recent years. Between 2021 and 2022, there were multiple concerning incidents including heat and hot water outages (January 2022), water leak complaints (both slow and heavy flow), and problems with the intercom system.

The building has ongoing maintenance issues as evidenced by multiple open violations, including one from June 2021 regarding water leak repairs needed in the first-floor ceiling, and another from August 2021 concerning ceiling repairs needed in apartment 5C. Additionally, there was a power outage documented in June 2021. The building's recent history shows some improvements, with no reported bed bug infestations in the past three years (2021-2024) and the most recent rodent inspection from October 2023 resulting in a "Passed" status.

However, several open violations remain, including issues with the intercom system, public hall ceiling maintenance, and repair needs in apartment 5C. The property has demonstrated a pattern of water-related issues, as seen in multiple complaints and violations regarding leaks and water damage. While the building has had multiple HPD inspections and 311 complaints, many of these issues were not able to be verified upon inspection or were closed without clear resolution, indicating ongoing challenges with accessing units for inspections or addressing maintenance concerns.
