836 Faile Street, Bronx, NY 10474
836 Faile Street is a 35-unit, five-story New Law Tenement building located in Hunts Point, built in 1927 and currently owned by Daniel Turkel. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with seven documented complaints between October 2023 and January 2025, affecting either the entire building or individual apartments. Most recently, complaints in December 2024 and January 2025 were closed without inspection due to access issues, though a December 2024 complaint was verified as corrected.
The building has also faced multiple internal problems, including a significant mold issue reported in July 2024 that resulted in violations, and various maintenance and repair needs documented in the violations from apartment 2D as of July 2024, including plumbing issues, lead paint concerns, and pest infestations. The building's infrastructure has shown ongoing challenges, with multiple boiler-related complaints and violations dating back to 2020, including defective/inoperative equipment and inspection access issues. Several safety and maintenance violations have been recorded, including problems with the fire escape, exit staircase, electrical systems, and building exterior walls. While the property has maintained a pattern of addressing most violations, there are several open violations as of July 2024 that require attention.
The building's bedbug history shows no reported infestations since 2019, and despite past rodent activity being documented in inspection reports throughout 2022-2025, recent inspections in 2025 have shown improved compliance with city standards. The property has undergone various inspections and received citations related to energy efficiency reporting requirements, though these violations have generally been dismissed upon review. The building appears to be subject to regular inspections as part of its status as a semi-annual homeless shelter, with most recent violations being addressed, though some equipment and maintenance issues persist. The current state of the building suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and certain infrastructure components, while also indicating some recent improvements in pest management and compliance with inspection requirements.
