2545 Sedgwick Avenue, Bronx, NY 10468

The 62-unit, 6-story building at 2545 Sedgwick Avenue in Kingsbridge, currently managed by Highview Owners Inc., has experienced a series of maintenance issues and violations over the past two years. Most notably, there are ongoing concerns about paint and plaster conditions, with an open HPD complaint as of April 2025. The building has faced recurring heat and hot water issues, with emergencies reported for both the entire building (January 2025) and individual apartments (October 2024).

Significant plumbing problems have been documented, including heavy water flows in April 2025 and various water leaks throughout 2024, some of which have resulted in violations. The property has had multiple building-wide and apartment-specific issues requiring attention, including problems with windows (four violations related to broken or defective windows), mold (notably in Apartment 4C), and general maintenance concerns. Of particular concern is an active open violation from November 2024 regarding fire damage in Apartment 7J and various open violations from August 2024 related to water leaks and plaster issues.

The building has also faced challenges with rodent control, experiencing rat activity as recently as March 2025, though it passed subsequent inspections. Despite these issues, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the past five years. The property's maintenance history shows some attention to corrective actions, as evidenced by multiple permits issued for work on the building, though there are three active violations related to failure to file inspection reports between 2021-2023.
