1361 Teller Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The 17-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 1361 Teller Avenue, owned by Eli Fisher, has experienced significant maintenance challenges throughout 2025, particularly during May-June 2025. The building has faced multiple electrical issues, including power outages and lighting failures, with several violations issued that required the owner to correct the conditions. There were also concerning incidents of water supply problems, heating issues, and pest infestations reported during this period.

The building's infrastructure reliability is currently under scrutiny, with two active complaints filed in May 2025 regarding improper drainage and plumbing maintenance. Notably, there was a building shaking/vibrating complaint in June 2025 that resulted in an Oath violation. The property has a documented history of maintenance violations that show persistent issues in various systems. In 2024, significant violations were identified in apartment 3F, including problems with roaches, water leaks, mold, ceiling issues, and bathtub repairs.

Another C-class violation was issued for apartment 3A regarding inadequate electrical service. The building's management has faced challenges with compliance, as evidenced by multiple failed rodent inspection results between 2023-2025, though some subsequent inspections passed. While the property has filed its bedbug reports showing no infestations in the last two reporting periods (2023-2024, 2022-2023), the overall pattern of maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure. The Department of Buildings records also show periodic permit activity, with permits issued in 2020-2022 for unspecified work.
