2566 Bainbridge Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458
The 34-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement building at 2566 Bainbridge Avenue in Fordham, owned by Tom Gjonlekaj and built in 1924, is currently experiencing numerous pressing maintenance issues as of 2025. The most recent cluster of complaints from April 2025 indicates critical problems with mold, electrical systems (both power outages and lighting issues), and water leaks, all of which were marked as emergencies though HPD was unable to complete inspections in response to these complaints.
Prior to these incidents, there were recurring issues throughout 2024-2025, including multiple reports of pest problems, additional water leaks, and unsanitary conditions. The building has an active BEDBUG report from 2024 showing zero infested units, though there have been consistent rodent activity reports throughout 2024-2025, with multiple bait applications and inspections indicating ongoing rodent presence. The building has a significant history of defects and violations, particularly between 2021-2022, when there were multiple citations for electrical wiring issues, including exposed wiring in hallways, and various Housing Maintenance Code violations.
Most notably, there are open violations from 2023-2024 related to mold and water-related issues in Apartment 2D, affecting walls and ceilings. The property has also failed to address several Environmental Control Board violations regarding non-compliance with electrical codes, with penalties totaling $12,500 currently due. Additionally, the building has multiple active violations regarding failure to file required energy benchmarking reports between 2019-2021, though these may not directly impact resident health or safety.
