115 West 172nd Street, Bronx, NY 10452
The 6-story, 59-unit New Law Tenement building at 115 West 172nd Street in Mount Eden, currently owned by Kobina Arhin, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with particular attention needed to plumbing and building systems. Most notably, between 2023 and 2025, there have been multiple water leak complaints, including recent reports in March 2025 and September 2023.
The elevator system has shown persistent concerns, with several complaints recorded between 2022 and 2025, though inspections consistently found no violations. Heating system reliability has been problematic, with a significant complaint about lack of heat/hot water affecting the entire building in January 2025, though this was temporarily resolved during HPD's inspection. The building has faced various maintenance challenges, including unsanitary conditions in garbage storage areas (June 2024 complaint) and issues with building doors noted in multiple violations.
Apartment-specific concerns include water leak issues in Apartments 2A and 4C (as of July 2023) and documented rodent activity with multiple baiting operations between 2023-2025. While the building has maintained some regulatory compliance, as evidenced by bedbug reports showing zero infestations in the past two years and recent rodent inspections passing in May 2025, there are currently two active DOB violations from 2024 regarding the failure to submit required inspection reports. The property has a history of pest problems, with one documented case of bedbugs affecting three units in 2022-2023, now seemingly resolved in recent filings.
