116 Henwood Place, Bronx, NY 10453

116 Henwood Place is a 6-story, 31-unit Class A residential building constructed in 1935, currently owned by Steven Finkelstein. The property has experienced several ongoing maintenance issues in 2025, with at least three open complaints as of March 2025, including plumbing problems affecting sinks/basins, unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions, and door-related issues. Notably, the building faced heat and hot water outages affecting the entire structure in January 2025, though these complaints were subsequently closed.

Throughout 2024 and into 2025, the building has had multiple violations and complaints, including flooring issues, pest problems, and safety concerns related to a broken window guard. The building's maintenance history reveals some significant structural and safety concerns. An active violation from 2022 relates to the failure to file an annual bedbug report, and in 2024, violations were issued regarding a defective fire escape drop ladder and various door issues, including a defective compactor closet door on the 2nd story.

The property has had documented rat activity in April 2022, though subsequent inspections have shown passing results in rodent inspections. In terms of external maintenance, the building has faced several Department of Buildings violations related to facade conditions and maintenance requirements, including issues with self-closing doors, window glass damage, and an incident in late 2021 involving boiler room safety violations that resulted in a $655 penalty. Despite these challenges, it's worth noting that the building has consistently reported zero infested dwelling units in its bedbug reporting for the past several years (2020-2025), and has passed multiple rodent inspections in recent years, including inspections in 2024 and 2025. The property has active repair permits issued in 2020-2021, indicating ongoing efforts to address building maintenance needs.
