2665 Bainbridge Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

2665 Bainbridge Avenue is a 2-family house located in Fordham, constructed in 1915 and currently owned by Kimberly Reid. The property has experienced ongoing heating issues, particularly during the winters of 2021-2023, with multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints filed for both apartment-specific and entire building conditions. While some of these complaints were resolved through inspections, including one on January 23, 2023 where conditions were verified as corrected, the pattern suggests persistent heating system challenges.

The building faced various maintenance issues in late 2021, including problems with a leaking roof affecting multiple rooms in the 2nd-floor apartment, ceiling tiles requiring repair, and plumbing concerns involving sinks and washbasins. Violations were issued during these inspections, including in December 2021 for a defective washbasin cabinet and other maintenance issues, though all were subsequently closed. More recent inspections from 2023 revealed additional concerns, including a window frame issue and various flooring problems, though not all resulted in violations.

Notably, there was a B violation issued in April 2023 regarding a missing carbon monoxide detector in the 2nd-floor apartment. The building has maintained compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections from 2017 through 2024, with the most recent inspection in May 2024 showing no violations. The property has a documented history of repairs and maintenance needs, including a 2021 plumbing complaint involving both bathtub/shower and sink/basin issues, as well as problems with pest control that same year. While some heating and maintenance issues appear to have been addressed through inspections and repairs, the frequency of similar complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
