106 Marcy Place, Bronx, NY 10452

106 Marcy Place is a 5-story, 56-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Abe Shalitzky. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in recent months, with multiple complaints from March 2025 regarding service outages affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. While some of these complaints were resolved, at least one remains open as of June 2025. The building's condition has raised several concerns, particularly regarding access for inspections; multiple HPD inspectors in 2025 were unable to gain entry to investigate complaints about flooring conditions and pest issues.

A series of violations related to self-closing doors and fire escape access has been documented, including open violations from late 2024 concerning doors at various building entrances. Recent animal control inspections have shown mixed results, with rat activity noted during inspections in August 2024, February 2025, and January 2023, though subsequent inspections have generally passed. The building has active violations related to energy reporting requirements, with penalties associated with failure to file benchmarking reports appearing in 2023-2024 records. Between 2023 and 2024, there was one documented case of bedbug infestation affecting two units, though recent filings indicate no infestations in the following periods.

The Department of Buildings has recorded various complaints and violations, including an active ECB violation from 2022 related to boiler safety issues with a penalty, though some older violations from 2022-2024 have since been closed. The building's management has demonstrated some responsiveness to maintenance issues, as evidenced by resolved heat complaints, but the pattern of inspection access issues and recurring maintenance needs raises ongoing concerns about building upkeep and resident comfort. While there are no recent bedbug reports and rodent inspections have occasionally passed, the presence of rat activity in multiple inspections suggests an ongoing challenge with vermin control. The property has shown regular maintenance engagement through 311 service requests and HPD inspections, but the recurring nature of certain complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
