2247 Ryer Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457
The 22-unit, 5-story residential building at 2247 Ryer Avenue in Fordham, owned by Mark Engel, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. As of March 2025, there are multiple open complaints, including a heavy water leak and concerns about general janitorial/supervision and unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage.
The building has a history of heating and hot water issues, with emergency complaints in 2024, and multiple maintenance concerns were documented in late 2024 regarding floors, walls, and sinks, though these were ultimately closed without violations. Notably, apartment 3A has several open violations from 2024-2025, including issues with pests (roach infestation) and intercom problems, while apartment 2D has documented mold issues from 2022 that were eventually closed. The building underwent an illegal conversion investigation in 2023, with violations issued for combining apartments 4C and 4D into one unit without proper permits, though no penalties were imposed.
Recent rodent inspections in 2024-2025 have generally passed, except for November 2023 and September 2020, where rat activity was noted. The property appears to have no history of bedbug infestations in recent years, as all reporting periods from 2019 through 2024 show zero infested or eradicated units. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic infrastructure and prompt response to resident concerns, though many previous violations and complaints have been resolved through inspections and repairs.
