367 East 169th Street, Bronx, NY 10456

The three-family building at 367 East 169th Street in Claremont Village, currently owned by Ultimate Development Inc, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, in August 2022, there was a serious incident involving the rear wooden deck collapsing from the second floor, which resulted in injuries to two dogs and led to a violation with a $6,280 penalty.

Between 2021 and 2022, multiple 311 complaints were filed regarding various issues, including heat and hot water problems, window frame repairs, and appliance malfunctions (refrigerator and electric range), with some complaints requiring emergency responses. The building has faced recurring pest challenges, with several inspections between 2022 and 2025 showing rat activity, though recent inspections in mid-2025 have passed. More recent housing maintenance concerns include two active violations from 2019 (boiler inspection) and 2023 (low pressure inspection) regarding failure to file required safety inspections.

The building underwent significant renovation work in 2021-2022, which may have contributed to some of the safety issues experienced during this period. Rodent inspections have shown periodic challenges with rat activity, though recent results indicate improvement, with all inspections in 2025 passing. The property has maintained a 2-family classification, despite its 3-unit configuration, and is subject to both Housing Preservation and Department of Buildings oversight, with various violations related to maintenance and safety standards over the years.
