784 East Tremont Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460
The 21-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement building at 784 East Tremont Avenue, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Harvey Arfa, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there is an *open violation* regarding the annual bedbug report filing as required by HPD regulations, with documentation from 2021 through 2024 indicating non-compliance. A serious heating system problem occurred in April 2019, affecting the entire building's heat and hot water supply, though this was reportedly resolved within a day.
More recently, in 2023, there were concerns about unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage, which were addressed by HPD. The building has also faced mechanical and infrastructure challenges, including two Department of Building violations in 2021-2023 related to a defective/operative boiler system, resulting in an Environmental Control Board violation with a penalty of $1,250 in 2024 for failure to comply with corrective orders. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections between 2015 and 2025, with only two instances of rat activity reported in 2015 and 2018, and the most recent 2025 inspection passed.
Historical documents from a 2019 inspection show various administrative violations related to building management and safety notices, including requirements for posting information about heating system access, gas leak procedures, and agency housing information guides, though these were subsequently corrected. The building has maintained relatively consistent compliance with rodent control measures in recent years, with the most recent inspections showing no current issues. While the property has demonstrated some responsiveness to maintenance issues, the persistence of the bedbug report violation and past heating system problems may warrant attention to building management practices.
