1844 Arthur Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

1844 Arthur Avenue is a 5-story, 20-unit residential building constructed in 1914, currently owned by Andrew Kleiman. The property has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent years, particularly related to water leaks and interior conditions. Between April and May 2024, multiple complaints and violations were documented regarding water leaks (including heavy flow, slow leaks, and damp spots), mold, and paint/plaster issues.

Notably, there are ongoing violations as of May 2024 regarding problems in apartment 1A, including water leaks, defective plastered surfaces, buckling wood floor issues, and non-compliant wall paint. The building also has active violations from June 2023 concerning the failure to file required external low-pressure inspections for 2018 and 2019. Recent inspection results show mixed maintenance compliance, with the most recent rodent inspection in January 2025 passing successfully.

The building has demonstrated a consistent history of managing pest issues, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years (records from 2019 through 2024 show zero infested or re-infested units), and all historical rodent inspections from 2013-2015 passed. The property has undergone several permitted work projects between 2021 and 2023, though the nature of these permits is not specified in the available data. While many historical complaints have been resolved (as evidenced by closed status), the frequency and nature of recent complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly relating to water management and interior upkeep.
