84 West 174Th Street, Bronx, NY 10453

84 West 174th Street is a 3-story, 4-unit converted Class A building located in Morris Heights, built in 1899 and currently owned by Josh Wiesenfeld. The property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with significant problems emerging in 2023-2024, particularly affecting Apartment 3 on the third floor. October 2023 inspections revealed multiple violations, including mold (approximately 2-6 square feet), water leaks affecting multiple walls, and damaged plaster/paint surfaces.

The building also experienced heat/hot water complaints in both 2023 and 2024, though inspectors sometimes faced access issues during investigations. More recent concerns in January 2024 included multiple pest-related complaints, while earlier complaints in 2023 involved ceiling damage and window frame issues. The building has a history of construction-related matters, with several Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and violations recorded in late 2023, including construction safety compliance actions and work without proper permits.

Notable violations included inadequate pedestrian walkway maintenance and improper housekeeping practices, resulting in several Environmental Control Board fines in September 2023. Previous violations from 2018 indicated electrical issues requiring attention, but many of these were subsequently resolved. The building has maintained a clean record in terms of bedbug infestations since 2021, with no reported cases in recent years, and recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 resulted in passing scores. While the building has ongoing maintenance challenges requiring attention, particularly regarding water-related issues, the property has demonstrated compliance with regular rodent inspections and shows no evidence of current bedbug problems.
