301 East 169th Street, Bronx, NY 10456
The two-family house at 301 East 169th Street in Claremont Village, owned by Harry Ark and constructed in 1919, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most recently, in November 2024, there were complaints about heat and hot water problems, though these were temporarily resolved with HPD intervention. A series of serious violations were documented in early 2024, including issues with mold, sewage, pests, and electrical problems, with specific citations for pest infestations (roaches), electrical wiring concerns, and various sanitation problems in Apartment 1 on the first floor.
These violations were generated through multiple 311 complaints in February 2024, some of which were marked as "emergency" situations. The building's maintenance history shows persistent challenges, particularly during 2024, when multiple inspections resulted in violation citations related to mold, electrical systems, and plumbing. While some improvements have been noted, including the resolution of certain complaints, several violations remain open as of the most recent inspection.
The property has passed recent rodent inspections in 2025, indicating improvements in pest control, and there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years. Historical records from 2019 show building code violations related to exterior maintenance issues, which were resolved. The building's documented issues suggest a pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly regarding fundamental systems like heating, electrical, and plumbing, though recent inspection results indicate some progress in addressing these problems.
