315 East 196th Street, Bronx, NY 10458
315 East 196th Street is a 6-story, 59-unit residential building constructed in 1941 and currently owned by Ved Parkash. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout 2024-2025, with multiple HPD complaints and violations documented between February and March 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. These complaints resulted in several housing maintenance code violations that required correction.
The building's elevator system has been a persistent concern, with multiple complaints filed between 2022 and 2025 regarding door lock monitoring and service issues, leading to significant ECB violations totaling $24,375 in penalties as of August 2023. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections (May 2024), there was a pattern of rat activity noted in 2016-2017. Additional maintenance issues have been documented, including problems with the flooring in apartment 3K (December 2024) and various repairs needed in apartments 2H (including bathroom mold, window guard issues, and plumbing concerns).
The building's management has demonstrated prompt attention to bedbug infestations, with reports showing no active infestations since 2019, and consistently filed rodent inspection reports showing recent compliance. The property has faced challenges with meeting energy benchmarking requirements, receiving violations for failing to file necessary reports between 2020-2024, though these were ultimately dismissed. An important open issue remains regarding lead paint documentation requirements in apartment 5H, as evidenced by violations from October 2024.
