2115 Ryer Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

The 63-unit, 6-story residential building at 2115 Ryer Avenue in Fordham, built in 1927 and currently owned by Ved Parkash, has experienced significant maintenance challenges throughout 2025. Most notably, there have been recurring issues with heat and hot water across multiple apartments, with ten separate complaints filed between January and March 2025, many resulting in emergency responses from HPD.

More recently, concerns about water supply and plumbing were reported in May 2025. The building's elevator system has also been problematic, with multiple complaints about single-device service and no alternate access noted in 2025, including active complaints from March and February 2025.

Additional building concerns include documented rat activity through multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025, and various regulatory compliance issues regarding fire safety equipment, heating systems, and pest control in apartment 44B, which was noted for having both rodent and cockroach infestations as well as multiple safety violations related to carbon monoxide detectors and smoke alarms. Recent environmental control board violations indicate ongoing challenges with elevator maintenance, including multiple failure-to-certify violations with associated penalties, and there are active ECB violations from 2024 regarding overdue elevator maintenance compliance. The building has maintained a relatively clean bedbug record in recent years, with no reported infestations since 2022, though previous years showed occasional isolated cases.
