2109 Tiebout Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

The four-story, 14-unit apartment building at 2109 Tiebout Avenue in Fordham, owned by Shaya Seidenfeld and constructed in 1910, has experienced a series of maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns occurring between late 2024 and mid-2025. The building has faced multiple water-related challenges, including two emergency water leak complaints with "heavy flow" conditions in early 2025, and various problems with ceiling and wall paint/plaster that have resulted in issued violations.

Recent 311 service requests from April 2025 documented issues with a refrigerator and cabinet, though these were reportedly corrected according to HPD. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases across all annual inspections from 2019 through 2024. Additional historical context shows some structural concerns from 2020-2021, including construction safety compliance issues that resulted in an Oath Violation and a fully rescinded Stop Work Order.

In late 2024, there was a report of a bulging/cracked wall or retaining wall system that was referred to HPD for further investigation. Inspection records indicate that HPD faced access issues during several inspections in early 2025, making it challenging to verify certain complaints, though other complaints were inspected with varying results. While the building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly related to water and interior surfaces, the absence of any recent bedbug reports and the closure of most complaints suggest some level of responsiveness to maintenance concerns, though access issues during inspections remain a notable pattern.
