36 Bedford Park Blvd, Bronx, NY 10468
The 5-story, 26-unit tenement building at 36 Bedford Park Boulevard, built in 1923 and currently owned by Jorge Ruiz, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in 2025. Most notably, there was a power outage in June 2025 that prompted an HPD inspection, though inspectors were unable to complete their evaluation. The building has also faced recurring rodent problems, with multiple inspections in 2024 and 2025 confirming rat activity. Water-related issues have been prevalent, with complaints about leaks and plumbing problems in both 2025 and 2024, including a heavy water leak reported in February 2025.
Heating and hot water systems have also experienced problems, with complaints about both apartment-specific and building-wide failures. The building has been subject to various HPD inspections and violations, with one notable cluster of issues in the basement apartment (BRBASE) identified in September 2024, including rodent infestation, leaky faucets, floor damage, and missing safety devices. Recent complaints have also highlighted concerns with building systems, including elevator problems and electrical issues, such as an emergency appliance problem reported in March 2025. Despite these maintenance challenges, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2019 to 2024 showing no affected units.
Compliance inspections regarding rodent activity have been ongoing, with the most recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 continuing to indicate the presence of pests. The building appears to have undergone some regulatory scrutiny in recent years, including environmental control board violations regarding an improperly permitted sidewalk shed electrical system in December 2023. Historical records show multiple complaints about illegal conversions between 2018 and 2019, though inspectors were reportedly unable to gain access during these inspections. Recent maintenance codes violations have been addressed, including repairs to a defective fire escape ladder and various other building maintenance issues, though one rodent-related violation remains open as of the latest inspection.
