810 East 170th Street, Bronx, NY 10459

The 77-unit, 6-story commercial building at 810 East 170th Street in Morrisania, owned by Yoel Schwartz, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years. Most notably, the building has had recurring heating and hot water problems, with multiple emergency complaints filed between January 2024 and February 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

There are also ongoing concerns about door security, with three emergency complaints in early 2025 alone, though HPD was unable to gain access for inspection in these cases. The building's infrastructure received attention in 2023-2024, with violations related to energy efficiency reporting and low pressure inspection filings, though these were ultimately dismissed. Recent building history shows that while the property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infestations between November 2022 and October 2024, there have been persistent issues with access for inspections regarding heating systems and door concerns.

There are two active elevator-related complaints as of 2025, suggesting potential accessibility issues for residents. The building has a pattern of multiple complaints being filed around the same time period, indicating clusters of similar issues, particularly regarding heating and door security. While many violations have been resolved or dismissed, the frequency of complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within the 1926 structure.
