249 East Kingsbridge Rd, Bronx, NY 10458

The five-story, 10-unit residential building at 249 East Kingsbridge Road in the Fordham neighborhood, owned by Roberto Ariziga, has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues throughout recent years. Between 2023 and 2024, there were five documented heat/hot water complaints affecting either the entire building or individual apartments, three of which were classified as emergencies.

The building also underwent significant maintenance activities in July 2023, with multiple violations issued and subsequently addressed, particularly in apartment 5N, involving repairs to electrical systems, plumbing fixtures, windows, and various surface finishes. Additional infrastructure concerns have been documented, including three power outage incidents in December 2022, which resulted in violations. More recently, the building's safety and sanitation status appears to have improved, with a passed rodent inspection in May 2025, though there was a rat activity report in November 2024.

The building's history of bedbug infestations shows no reported cases in the past seven filing periods, covering from 2020 to 2024. A gas utility complaint from January 2021 was notably marked as "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" on the second attempt. While the building has maintained compliance with regular bedbug reporting requirements, the frequency of heating system issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, despite HPD verification of corrective actions following each complaint.
