797 Crotona Park North, Bronx, NY 10460
The five-story, 21-unit tenement building at 797 Crotona Park North in Tremont, dating from 1915 and owned by Valerie Torres, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there was a building-wide heat and hot water outage in January 2025, which was resolved quickly but indicates potential infrastructure concerns.
Between 2022-2023, the property received multiple emergency complaints regarding safety systems, including failed inspections for smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in April 2024, though no violations were ultimately issued. The building has faced recurring pest control challenges, with active violations for mice and cockroach infestations in Apartment 22 as of December 2024, and consistent rodent activity documented through multiple inspections between 2023-2025.
The property has several active Department of Buildings violations, including an open ECB violation from February 2023 regarding a detached fire escape ladder, with a penalty of $6,250, and multiple unfiled external low-pressure inspection violations from June 2023. The building's maintenance history shows regular inspection activity, with bedbug incidents reported in late 2024 affecting one unit, though previous years showed no infestations. While some non-emergency issues, such as garbage storage conditions and wall damage, have been addressed through standard inspection processes, the pattern of safety system failures and pest control challenges suggests ongoing maintenance and safety monitoring requirements.
