277 East 207th Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The six-story, 68-unit building at 277 East 207th Street in Norwood, owned by Louie Andris, was completed in 1959 and has undergone numerous maintenance and violation issues in recent years. Most recently, in 2025, there have been multiple housing complaints regarding door issues, water leaks, electrical problems, and pest control, with several violations issued in February 2025 related to doors, windows, and electrical systems. The building has experienced recurring water-related issues, with complaints documented in both 2024 and 2025. A significant cluster of violations was documented in August 2024, all affecting apartment 5F, including problems with water leaks, plaster surfaces, and the need for repairs in both the kitchen and bathroom.

This group of violations, classified as "B," were all certified for correction in September 2024, though the building had previously been listed as having unsafe conditions requiring a $10,000 penalty in early 2024. The building's recent history shows ongoing maintenance challenges, including repeated problems with doors and windows, electrical systems, and plumbing fixtures. Two emergency complaints regarding door issues were filed in 2025, and the property has maintained a consistent record of rodent activity, as evidenced by multiple inspections between 2020 and 2025, though the most recent inspection in June 2025 passed. The building's systems and infrastructure have been the subject of numerous inspections, with varying results, and multiple housing maintenance code violations have been documented, particularly affecting apartments 3G and 5F.

While the property management has generally responded to violations, there have been instances requiring tenant involvement for resolution, particularly where access for inspection was not granted, as noted in multiple 2025 and 2024 complaints. The building's history shows regular compliance inspections under various NYC regulations, with most recent inspections in 2025 showing no significant violations warranting penalties, though earlier inspections in 2024 and 2023 had noted various maintenance issues requiring correction. The property has maintained an active filing record for bedbug reporting between 2019 and 2024, consistently reporting zero infested units across multiple years, though historical records show one infestation in 2019. The Department of Buildings has issued multiple permits for work on the property between 2020 and 2022, indicating ongoing maintenance and repair efforts by management.
