2895 Valentine Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The 9-story, 62-unit residential building at 2895 Valentine Avenue in Fordham, owned by Joe Redek, was constructed in 2022 and has experienced multiple maintenance issues throughout 2025. The property currently has two open housing maintenance code complaints from June 2025 regarding elevator maintenance and garbage/recycling storage conditions.

Recent service requests in May 2025 highlighted concerns with unsanitary conditions (including pests and garbage storage) and flooring issues, though HPD inspections found no violations in some of these cases. Earlier in the year, there were significant problems with heat and hot water, particularly in April and February 2025, with at least one of these complaints still remaining open as of May 2025. Additional maintenance issues included electrical problems with outlets/switches (February 2025, violations issued), wall damage/painting concerns, and general complaints regarding janitorial services (all between February and March 2025).

Despite these challenges, the building's record shows no history of bedbug infestations in the past two reporting periods (2022-2023 and 2023-2024), and there was one plumbing-related complaint in October 2023 that was found to have no violations at the time of inspection. The property has experienced recurring issues with garbage/recycling storage conditions, as evidenced by multiple complaints throughout 2025. While many of the complaints have been resolved, several recent issues, particularly regarding the elevator system and sanitation matters, remain open as of mid-2025.
