2635 Sedgwick Avenue, Bronx, NY 10468

2635 Sedgwick Avenue is a 5-story, 11-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1916 and currently owned by Tony Guillen. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant concerns emerging in 2025, including violations related to doors/windows, unsanitary conditions (pests), and water supply problems. A particularly concerning cluster of violations was documented in June 2024 in apartment 5B, including problems with fire escape doors, rodent infestations, broken light fixtures, and missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

The building's heating and hot water systems have also presented challenges, with emergency complaints recorded in January 2025 and October 2023, including issues with excessive hot water temperatures in apartment 4B. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with multiple rat activity inspections recorded from October 2022 through 2024, though a passing inspection in May 2024 suggests some improvement. The building's systems and infrastructure have shown recurring problems, including multiple plumbing issues (such as radiator and water supply complaints) and various door/window-related concerns.

In 2019, significant safety violations were recorded regarding an obstructed exit passageway and unauthorized construction work, though these appear to have been resolved through penalties. Despite these ongoing maintenance challenges, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past seven years. The most recent inspections and complaints suggest that while some issues have been addressed, particularly in terms of rodent control, the building continues to face recurring maintenance challenges that affect resident comfort and safety.
