2071 Ryer Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

The 24-unit, 8-story residential building at 2071 Ryer Avenue in Fordham, owned by Faigy Friedman, was constructed in 2023 and has experienced several significant events during its short history. The building underwent a substantial construction phase in 2023, during which multiple complaints were logged regarding construction safety compliance, with particular focus on the protection of adjacent buildings, inadequate fencing, and construction beyond approved plans.

These issues resulted in some enforcement actions, including Oath Violations and a Stop Work Order, though most were ultimately resolved with no violations found upon inspection. In 2024, there were additional complaints regarding building stability, illegal conversion concerns, and sustainability enforcement, though once again, inspections found no violations at the time.

Prior to construction, the site had two notable violations from 2022: one regarding damaged and loose vinyl siding requiring emergency repairs, and another concerning a failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous violation - both of which were dismissed. As of the most recent reporting period (November 2023 - October 2024), the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no units reported as infested, eradicated, or re-infested. While the building has experienced various compliance and safety-related issues throughout its construction and initial occupancy period, inspections have consistently found no violations at the time of investigation, suggesting that many of the reported concerns may have been promptly addressed or resolved.
