78 Clinton Place, Bronx, NY 10453
78 Clinton Place, located in University Heights, is a three-story, three-unit residential building constructed in 1901 and currently owned by Mayer Kaufman. The property has a significant history of heating and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed through 2023-2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.
Notably, in December 2024, Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) issued Class C violations for inadequate heat and hot water supply in Apartments 2 and 3, along with several other violations concerning door and lock maintenance, including defective self-closing doors and issues with the boiler room access. The building's heating system has required multiple emergency interventions, with complaints registered in April 2025, January 2025, and December 2024, though HPD inspections have generally found conditions either improved or not in violation of housing laws. Recent inspections have revealed ongoing rodent activity, with multiple compliance inspections throughout 2024-2025 noting rat activity and bait application, suggesting a persistent pest control challenge.
A significant safety concern was documented in March 2023, when a Department of Buildings violation was issued regarding compromised fire escape access at exposure #3, though this violation remains active without recorded resolution as of the latest data. The building's management has maintained documentation of pest control efforts, with bedbug reports for 2023-2024 showing no confirmed infestations. While many of the building's documented issues have received prompt attention and resolution, the frequency of heating system complaints and ongoing rodent activity suggest persistent maintenance challenges.
