2293 Sedgwick Avenue, Bronx, NY 10468

2293 Sedgwick Avenue is a four-story, 9-unit residential building constructed in 1910 and currently owned by 2293 Sedgwick Ave Realty Corp. The property has experienced recurrent heating and hot water issues throughout 2023-2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed in January 2025 alone affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. These heating system problems appear to persist, with HPD noting varying degrees of resolution, including instances where inspectors were unable to gain access.

The building also faced significant infrastructure challenges in 2024, including plumbing issues related to water supply (June 2024) and an electrical power outage (February 2024). The property has documented several maintenance violations, including a broken building entrance door lock (August 2024), a defective marble tread at the building entrance (December 2023), and various heating system deficiencies including inadequate heat supply and water temperature regulation issues in Apartment 4N (December 2023). A cluster of illegal conversion complaints was filed between 2019-2021, though all inspections resulted in access denial.

Notably, an Environmental Control Board violation from 2019 cited illegal conversion of the cellar into unauthorized SROs with inadequate egress. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug-free status in annual reports from 2021-2025 and has recently passed rodent inspections in 2024, though there were several instances of rat activity recorded in 2021-2022. Additional violations have included fire escape obstruction and issues with self-closing doors, though these have since been addressed.
