808 East 170th Street, Bronx, NY 10459

The three-unit tenement building at 808 East 170th Street in Morrisania, owned by Wayne Cadena, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, though many have been promptly addressed. Most notably, in February 2025, there were multiple complaints involving unsanitary conditions including garbage/recycling storage and pest issues, though HPD's investigations found no housing law violations in these cases. A door-related violation was issued during the same inspection period.

The building underwent significant issues in 2024, particularly in Apartment 3, where violations were documented for pest infestation (specifically roaches), bathroom tile damage, refrigerator door gasket issues, and defective bathroom ventilation. Earlier complaints from 2024 involved problems with a refrigerator and cooking gas, while a 2019 lighting complaint was also addressed. The building has maintained an active compliance record for bedbug reporting, with no infestations recorded in the past five reporting periods from 2019 through 2025.

The property has undergone regular rodent inspections between 2010 and 2022, with the most recent surprise inspection in 2022 showing a "Passed" result, suggesting effective pest management. Multiple emergency and non-emergency complaints have been filed in recent years regarding building systems such as the bell/buzzer/intercom system (2025), though inspections found no violations in these cases. The Department of Buildings conducted inspections in February 2025 for egress and illegal work complaints, with no violations warranted at the time. While the building's age (built in 1899) and history show recurring maintenance challenges, particularly in recent years, most issues have been addressed through the city's violation process.
