354 East 195th Street, Bronx, NY 10458

The 2-story, 3-unit residential building at 354 East 195th Street in Fordham, owned by Elefterios Yanousoglou, has experienced a range of maintenance and structural issues in recent years, with the most significant concerns emerging in 2024-2025. As of May 2025, the building is under structural monitoring due to observations of rusted and deteriorated steel window lintels, damaged mortar joints, and an inward-leaning parapet wall, with the Department of Buildings requiring a corrective action plan from the owner.

The building has also faced persistent plumbing issues, particularly in late 2023 through 2024, with multiple emergency complaints regarding toilets, bathtubs/showers, and radiators, though HPD was often unable to gain access for inspections. Earlier known issues included electrical problems with non-functioning lighting in 2023, and multiple heat and hot water complaints that were resolved promptly.

The property has open violations regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports for multiple years (2021-2024), and recent inspections in 2024-2025 have revealed ongoing rat activity, with bait applied in response to inspections in mid-2025. Historical data shows the building has struggled with various maintenance issues since at least 2021, though some past complaints (such as those regarding lighting and heat) were resolved. The building's age (1930 construction) and classification as a "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A" property suggest it is an older structure that has undergone some form of conversion, though specific details of the conversion are not provided in the data.
