315 Echo Place, Bronx, NY 10457

Located in the Mount Hope neighborhood, 315 Echo Place is a 5-story, 22-unit New Law Tenement built in 1922 and currently owned by Tremont Echo Hdfc. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple reports of unsanitary conditions, including mold and pests, particularly evident in Spring 2025. There are several unresolved floor-related problems noted in both 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints, with violations issued in April 2025.

The building has documented water-related issues, including leaks and mold concerns, most notably in Apartment 5C as of December 2024, where violations remain open. Security features have required attention, with violations noted in December 2024 regarding defective locks and doors at the building's entrance. Recent inspections reveal ongoing rodent activity, with the most recent inspections in May 2025 showing rat presence, following previous bait application in April 2025.

The building's maintenance history shows periodic attention to pest control and security systems, though many recent violations remain open or were only recently addressed. While bedbug issues have not been reported in recent years, with records showing zero infested units from 2019 through 2024, the current pattern of maintenance concerns across multiple systems (floors, walls, water, and pests) suggests a building requiring significant ongoing maintenance and monitoring. The property is subject to various Housing Maintenance Code violations, with some categorized as Class A (immediate hazard) and Class C (potentially hazardous), particularly affecting Apartments 2D and 5C as of December 2024.
