1664 Macombs Road, Bronx, NY 10453
The 53-unit, 6-story building at 1664 Macombs Road in Morris Heights, managed by Stephen Kraus, has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges since late 2024 through early 2025. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water outages affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with the most recent complaints coming in January 2025. These issues are particularly concerning given their classification as emergency complaints.
The building has also faced hardware and safety concerns, including two emergency window-related complaints in December 2024 which were not successfully inspected by HPD. Housing Maintenance Code Violations from 2023-2024 indicate problems with hopper chute doors on the 5th and 6th stories, though some violations were subsequently closed. Earlier issues with the building's elevator system were prominent between 2021-2022, with multiple complaints about being out-of-service and creating hazardous conditions.
Current active violations related to elevator maintenance include failure to submit required inspection reports and certification corrections for immediately hazardous conditions, with penalties totaling $6,000. While the building has shown zero bedbug infestation reports since 2020 and has passed recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025, a rat activity report from October 2024 was recorded, though this appears to be an isolated incident based on subsequent inspections. The building's age (1927) and classification as a New Law Tenement may contribute to the ongoing maintenance challenges, with several complaints indicating access issues for HPD inspectors attempting to verify reported problems.
