1145 Boynton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The 24-unit, 4-story residential building at 1145 Boynton Avenue in Soundview, owned by 1145 Realty Corp, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent months. Between March and April 2025, there were multiple heat and electrical issues, including two emergency heat/hot water complaints affecting the entire building in April, and several electrical complaints related to lighting, wiring, and power outages.

These issues resulted in multiple inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though inspectors found that not all conditions violated housing laws. The building has two active Department of Buildings violations from June 2023 related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2019 and 2020. As of November 2024, there are several open Housing Maintenance Code violations, including issues with broken glass panes in the vestibule door, window problems in the first-story public hall, various encumbrances in public areas, and a missing heating system contact notice.

Notably, apartment 6B was cited for both roach and mice infestations in November 2024. The building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections since 2017, with the most recent inspection in April 2025 showing compliance, though there was one instance of rat activity in 2019. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in the past six years, from 2019 to 2024.
