2325 Arthur Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The five-story, 23-unit tenement building at 2325 Arthur Avenue in Belmont, built in 1906, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, between April and May 2025, there were multiple emergency incidents, including a power outage, heat and hot water failures, and concerns regarding carbon monoxide detectors.

The building has also faced persistent heating and maintenance challenges, with violations issued in December 2024 for lead paint hazards, carbon monoxide and smoke detector deficiencies, pest infestations (including mice and roaches), and inadequate heating in apartment 20. Additional issues recorded in 2024 included problems with doors and windows, fire escape access, and water leaks, though the building has maintained consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all recent inspections as of 2025, with only some initial inspections indicating rodent activity.

The property owner, Nick Gazivoda, has faced various building maintenance challenges according to city records, including a currently active violation (as of June 2023) related to the failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection. While the building has shown compliance in recent rodent inspections and bedbug reports consistently show no infestations, the pattern of heating system failures, emergency complaints, and multiple violations in late 2024 regarding basic safety systems (including fire safety equipment) suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's historical data indicates regular reporting of maintenance issues, particularly during the colder months when heating systems are critical, with the most recent violations primarily impacting apartment 20 on the fifth floor.
