2105 Ryer Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457
2105 Ryer Avenue is a 5-story, 53-unit residential building constructed in 1927, currently owned by Douglas Peterson. The property has experienced numerous maintenance and habitability issues over the past two years (2024-2025), with significant recent concerns including multiple mailbox problems, indoor air quality issues (chemical vapors), and various maintenance complaints ranging from door/window issues to concerns about mold, water leaks, and ceiling conditions. A concentrated wave of complaints in April 2025 generated several HPD inspections, some of which resulted in violations, particularly related to mailbox problems.
The building has documented rat activity in inspections throughout 2024 and 2025, and there were concerning violations issued in late 2024 against Apartment 5I, including issues with mice and roach infestations, carbon monoxide detector problems, and a leaky roof, though these were subsequently marked as resolved. The property has a history of issues with illegal conversions, as evidenced by multiple complaints dating from 2019 through 2024, though inspections often resulted in no violations being found or inspectors being unable to gain access. Recent building maintenance concerns include electrical issues noted in early 2024, with a subsequent Environmental Control Board violation regarding burnt defective outlets in bedrooms and corroded kitchen outlets.
The building has also faced challenges with record-keeping, as evidenced by several violations for failure to submit energy usage benchmarking reports in 2022 and 2023, though these were ultimately resolved. The most concerning aspect of the building's recent history has been the persistent rat activity, with compliance inspections and bait applications documented throughout 2024 and into 2025. Despite these various issues, the building's bedbug reports from 2019 through 2023 show no recorded infestations, which suggests that particular pest concern has been effectively managed.
