1670 East 174th Street, Bronx, NY 10472
1670 East 174th Street is an 8-story, 64-unit residential building constructed in 1964, currently owned by Joseph Friedman. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in 2025, with multiple open complaints as of June 2025 regarding electrical problems (including lighting), cabinet repairs, and appliance issues (electric/gas range). These follow a pattern of similar complaints in April 2025, where both HPD inspections found some conditions did not violate housing laws, though violations were issued for cabinet and appliance issues that warranted corrections.
The building's heating and hot water systems have faced intermittent problems, with emergency complaints recorded and investigated in 2025, though some were resolved quickly with confirmed restoration of services. The building has a documented history of elevator maintenance challenges, as evidenced by multiple complaints between 2020 and 2025, with the most recent active complaints (as of May 2025) regarding multiple devices on the property. Significant elevator-related violations were issued between 2019-2024, including issues with door operation, machine room access, and safety features, though many were ultimately resolved or dismissed.
Security improvements were attempted following violations in late 2024 requiring repairs to self-closing doors and locking devices at various building entrances. The building has undergone regular pest control inspections, with recent reports showing rat activity in 2023-2024, though no bedbug infestations have been reported since 2020. Recent elevator complaints continue to be a maintenance focus, with inspection results varying between "No Violation Warranted" and "Oath Violation Served" status.
