1705 Andrews Avenue South, Bronx, NY 10453
1705 Andrews Avenue South, a 6-story New Law Tenement built in 1928 with 66 units, is currently experiencing multiple maintenance issues as of mid-2025. Most notably, there are **active elevator service problems** with complaints filed in June 2025 regarding single device operation and no alternate service. The building has been facing persistent **facade maintenance issues** with multiple active ECB violations from 2023-2024 totaling over $90,000 in penalties for failures to maintain exterior walls and compliance with facade inspection requirements, including spalling masonry and inadequate safety measures.
Recent inspections and service requests have revealed various building system problems, including **emergency electrical issues**, plumbing, and appliance concerns in May 2025, though HPD inspections were unable to gain access to verify these problems. The building has an active rodent control program with mixed results, showing rat activity in multiple inspections throughout 2024-2025, though recent inspections in April and July 2025 had bait applied. An apartment in 1H has open violations from December 2024 for inadequate heat and hot water supply. Another apartment (4F) has multiple open violations from November 2024 related to water damage, plumbing issues, and defective plaster/paint conditions.
The property has a documented history of **elevator maintenance issues**, with multiple complaints about single device operation and no alternate service from 2023 to 2025. Facade-related violations continue to be a significant concern, with three active ECB violations from 2023-2024 noting failures to maintain exterior building facade, resulting in substantial fines. All bedbug reports since 2018 show zero infestation cases, indicating effective pest management in this regard. However, recent observations from HPD inspectors and rodent inspection results suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and sanitation, particularly concerning exterior conditions and some interior apartment issues.
