3569 Dekalb Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467
The six-story, 59-unit building at 3569 DeKalb Avenue in Norwood, owned by Robert Raphael, has a troubling pattern of maintenance issues and violations over recent years. Most notably, in 2025, there have been multiple concerning complaints and violations regarding building conditions, including indoor air quality concerns, various paint/plaster issues, flooring problems, and a ventilation complaint that required intervention from the Department of Health.
The building has faced persistent rodent activity, with multiple inspections and bait applications from 2024 through 2025 showing ongoing pest management issues. An inspection in December 2024 revealed several violations in apartment F, including water leak repairs needed in multiple rooms and issues with plastered surfaces, while a violation for a key-operated lock affecting a fire escape window in apartment F remains open as of the latest inspection.
The building's regulatory history shows multiple instances of regulatory scrutiny, including Department of Buildings complaints about illegal conversions (2018-2024), egress issues, and concerns about structural stability, though most of these complaints were closed with no violations warranted upon inspection. Environmental Control Board violations from 2024 noted problems with coping stones at the parapet area that incurs a penalty of $1,250, and past violations from 2018-2019 addressed issues with exposed cables, maintenance of exit passageways, and fire safety concerns, though these were resolved. While the building has maintained a zero-bedbug record in recent reports (2021-2024), the persistent issues with paint damage, water leaks, and pest control suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
