1421 College Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
The 115-unit, 6-story building at 1421 College Avenue in Claremont Village, owned by Paul Freitag and built in 2009, has experienced recurring issues with heat and water problems, particularly evident in January 2025 when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding inadequate heat/hot water in apartments. The building has also faced pest challenges, with several complaints about unsanitary conditions due to pests between late 2024 and early 2025, though inspections often found no violations. Environmental concerns have emerged, with a May 2025 indoor air quality complaint leading to a DOHMH notification to the property management.
The building has documented maintenance history showing both recent and historical issues. Notably, Apartment 515 had three violations issued in November 2024 regarding mold, damaged vinyl tile, and paint requirements, while Apartment 218 had several violations in 2023-2024 related to roach infestation and various maintenance issues. The property has maintained a relatively stable bedbug record, with no reported infestations in the most recent filing period (2023-2024), though there were three cases in 2022-2023.
A concerning pattern of elevator service problems was documented in 2018-2019, resulting in multiple ECB violations and penalties, though these issues appear to have been resolved. Recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025 have shown mixed results, with some indicating rat activity, though the most recent December 2024 inspection passed. The building's management has responded to various complaints as required by HPD, with many issues being addressed and closed through inspections, though some complaints were closed due to lack of access for inspection personnel. While some violations and complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and pest control, the building has generally adhered to regulatory requirements for addressing documented issues.
