1146 Fteley Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

1146 Fteley Avenue is a 2-story, 4-unit New Law Tenement building located in Soundview, owned by Mohamed Ahmed and constructed in 1926. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed between 2019 and 2020, though records indicate these were eventually resolved.

Significant habitability concerns were documented in 2019, particularly affecting the 2nd floor apartment (2F), including violations related to pest infestations (both roaches and mice), window repairs, missing safety equipment (such as carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors), and door-related issues. While the building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history from 2019 to 2025 showing zero infestations, the rodent control records from 2022-2024 indicate regular treatment efforts with bait applications, though recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 show improved conditions with "Passed" results. The property has undergone several inspections related to housing maintenance code violations, with the most recent bedbug report filings (2023-2025) showing consistent compliance with reporting requirements.

Three violations remain open as of 2024-2025, including issues with a self-closing door, missing carbon monoxide detectors, defective window components, and safety equipment concerns in the 2F apartment. The building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, including window frame problems and unsanitary conditions, particularly in 2019 when multiple complaints were filed regarding pest problems across different units. While many historical issues have been resolved, the ongoing presence of open violations and the building's history of heating and maintenance problems warrant attention to the property's past habitability challenges.
