4623 Park Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The 4-story, 8-unit New Law Tenement building at 4623 Park Avenue in Fordham, owned by Monica Ghirdharry, has experienced several concerning maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly in 2024. Most notably, Apartment 4 has open violations as of October 2024 for cockroach and mouse infestations, though it had previous violations related to a faulty smoke detector, carbon monoxide device, and security issues with the fire escape that were subsequently certified as corrected.

Apartment 6 also faced multiple violations in September 2024, including issues with lead-based paint, mice infestation, and a problematic toilet installation, all of which were certified for correction. The building has documented multiple pest-related complaints, with three separate unsanitary condition complaints specifically about pests filed in October 2024, and a significant number of HPD inspections resulting in violations during the same period. Recent infrastructure issues have included concerns about the boiler system, with a May 2024 violation regarding exposed wiring and flue pipe conditions, though this was resolved with no penalties.

While there have been persistent rodent issues, as evidenced by inspection results, most recent rodent inspections in 2025 and compliance checks in late 2024 have shown improvement, with passes recorded in March and October 2025. The building's plumbing systems have also been the subject of multiple complaints, including issues with flooring, doors, and various appliances, though most of these complaints were found not to violate housing codes. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero affected units reported in the past four annual filings between 2021 and 2025, and all previous infestations had been fully eradicated.
