718 East 175th Street, Bronx, NY 10457

718 East 175th Street is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 2011, currently owned by Long Lin. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most recent complaint in June 2023 regarding unsanitary mold conditions, which was investigated but resulted in no violations. A pattern of access-related inspection challenges emerged in 2021, when multiple complaints spanning heat/hot water, plumbing issues, appliance problems, and pest concerns could not be properly inspected due to lack of access.

More recent concerns have focused on Unit 3F, with multiple violations documented in late 2024, including issues with a closet door, refrigerator gasket, and bathroom ceiling. The building has also faced some infrastructure challenges, with October 2024 inspections revealing multiple violations concerning building entrance and staircase door closures. Rodent-related issues have been a recurring concern, with recent inspections in early 2025 showing some ongoing challenges despite a passed compliance inspection in June 2025.

The building's pest management history shows significant rodent activity in 2018, requiring multiple bait applications. However, recent bedbug reports from 2022 through 2025 indicate no infestations or related issues. While some violations have been resolved, including those related to door closures and other infrastructure elements, several open or recently certified violations from late 2024 suggest ongoing maintenance needs. The property has demonstrated some responsiveness to housing maintenance code requirements, as evidenced by various closed violations, though access issues in previous years have hindered timely resolution of certain complaints.
