1314 Stratford Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The 2-story, 4-unit residential building at 1314 Stratford Avenue in Parkchester, owned by Abiodun Adeyemi, has experienced numerous maintenance issues over the past year, with particular problems in the heating and electrical systems. Most notably, there have been repeated heat and hot water complaints in January 2025, with multiple tenants reporting building-wide issues, some of which resulted in HPD violations.

The building has also faced electrical problems, including power outages and lighting issues, with violations issued in March 2025. An inspection in December 2024 revealed several violations in Apartment 1F, including defective carbon monoxide detector, non-functioning smoke detector, hot water supply issues, and a mouse infestation, while Apartment 2R showed problems with kitchen floor tiles. Additional concerns include a November 2024 complaint about building stability that resulted in an ECB violation regarding wall cracks and mold in Apartment 2R, along with ongoing rodent activity as documented by multiple inspections between 2019 and 2021.

The building's safety equipment has also been a concern, with violations noted for defective building entrance door locks and self-closing doors. While the property has shown some compliance with previous violations (evidenced by several "closed" statuses), many recent issues remain unresolved as of the latest inspection dates, including open violations related to carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and a kitchen alteration in Apartment 1F. The building's historical bedbug reports between 2019 and 2024 show no infestation cases.
