2406 Walton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10468

2406 Walton Avenue is a 5-story, 38-unit New Law tenement building located in Fordham and owned by Julio Cabrera. The building, constructed in 1923, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with multiple complaints about paint and plaster conditions, particularly involving ceilings. Most notably, in early 2025, there were complaints about broken window guards and wall conditions, which HPD was unable to inspect.

Throughout 2024, there were several instances of HPD being unable to gain access to inspect reported problems, including a building-wide heat/hot water complaint in August 2024, and issues with an electric/gas range and refrigerator in March 2024. The building has also had several violations requiring attention to safety systems, including the need for repairs to self-closing doors and a flower pot obstruction on a fire escape, all of which were ultimately closed. The building's safety systems have been a particular focus of attention, with multiple violations documented in 2023-2024 regarding carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and hot water temperature issues.

A significant cluster of violations and complaints occurred in 2024, including a period of hot water issues affecting all fixtures in Apartment 3, and concerns about security systems. While the building has a history of bedbug reports from 2018 through 2024, the most recent reports show no current infestations as of the 2024-2025 reporting period. It's worth noting that the building has consistently passed rodent inspections, with the most recent inspection in April 2025 showing no issues.
