1724 Crotona Park East, Bronx, NY 10460
The 20-unit, 6-story building at 1724 Crotona Park East, owned by Hawatha Selby and built in 1927, has experienced significant heat and maintenance issues throughout 2024-2025. Most notably, between early May 2025 and continuing into recent months, there have been multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints affecting the entire building, with HPD conducting inspections and issuing violations. The building has also been facing persistent rodent issues, with three inspections in 2024 (March, July, October) noting rat activity.
Housing Maintenance Code violations remain active for apartment 4A, including required repairs to multiple cabinets, mold remediation, and pest control measures, while apartment 5C has open violations related to bathroom fixtures and door locks. The building's facade has been the subject of multiple Environmental Control Board violations, with active cases from 2024 citing exterior maintenance issues, including step cracks in brick masonry and problems with the building facade. Previous violations from 2018 indicate ongoing concerns with building maintenance compliance, particularly regarding a fire escape security gate in apartment 4C.
Recent heat system failures, as evidenced by multiple HPD complaints and violations, suggest persistent building system maintenance challenges. While the building has maintained a bedbug-free record in official reporting from 2021 to present, the pattern of heat, rodent, and maintenance issues indicates ongoing operational difficulties. A permit for unspecified work was issued in December 2019, though no details are provided in the available data.
