311 Bedford Park Blvd, Bronx, NY 10458

The 51-unit, 6-story building at 311 Bedford Park Blvd in Norwood, owned by John Satriale and constructed in 1937, has experienced significant ongoing maintenance challenges in 2025, particularly regarding heating and hot water systems. From April to June 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints about lack of heat and hot water affecting the entire building, with inspections often finding that services had been restored by the time HPD arrived. The building has also faced broader infrastructure issues, including plumbing problems (verified through multiple complaints in May 2025), water leaks, and appliance issues.

In December 2024, violations were recorded in apartment 6F for excessively hot water (over 130 degrees) and missing carbon monoxide detectors. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent problems with rodent activity, with multiple inspections from 2018 through 2025 showing ongoing rat presence, though recent bait application was noted in February 2025. Elevator service issues were documented in 2018, resulting in violations.

More recently, in April 2025, there were complaints about defective electrical wiring, though no violation was warranted upon inspection. The property has also had various building code violations, including issues with self-closing doors in the compactor area and requirements for energy efficiency score display, which remain active as of 2025. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained an effective pest control record for bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the past eight reporting periods from 2019 through 2025.
