770 Faile Street, Bronx, NY 10474
The 6-story, 35-unit residential building at 770 Faile Street in Hunts Point, owned by Oscar Kohn and constructed in 1926, has faced several ongoing maintenance challenges throughout 2025. Most notably, there have been multiple heat/hot water complaints in both March and April 2025, classified as emergencies, with Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) frequently unable to access units for inspection despite the serious nature of these issues. Additional concerns during this period include problems with building systems such as the electrical lighting, intercom/buzzer system, and flooring, all of which required HPD inspection but faced access issues.
A significant safety violation was issued in March 2025 regarding carbon monoxide detector compliance. The building has a documented history of water-related issues, with heavy flow water leak complaints reported in both March and April 2025. Past records from late 2024 show various maintenance violations, including problems with the fire escape system requiring repairs to the drop ladder and a missing smoke detector in one unit.
Earlier issues from 2019-2020 included water damage in the lobby ceiling and concerns about building stability. Since late 2020, there has been a consistent track record of bed bug-free status, with all reporting periods showing zero infested units. Rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with rat activity recorded in February 2025, though previous inspections from 2023 and earlier generally passed. The building's violation history shows some recurring patterns, particularly regarding heat/hot water issues, building systems maintenance, and emergency conditions that require prompt attention.
