1727 East 172nd Street, Bronx, NY 10472

This 5-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 1727 East 172nd Street in Parkchester, owned by Yechiel Weber and built in 1928, has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in 2025. The most recent issues involve problems with doors/windows (June 2025), heat and hot water (March 2025), and an open radiator plumbing complaint (March 2025).

Throughout 2024-2025, the building faced multiple heat/hot water complaints, with varying resolutions, and several other issues including electrical problems, appliance concerns, and unsanitary conditions. The building has documented violations related to housing maintenance codes, including safety concerns about security doors, electrical service, and life safety systems in Apartment 2 (defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors) and Apartment 3 (various pest infestations, though these appear to have been addressed according to subsequent inspections). The property has multiple active violations for failing to file external low-pressure inspections from 2018-2021, and while rodent inspections from 2023 showed passing results, a 2021 compliance inspection had failed.

The building's bedbug reporting shows consistent eradication efforts, with no active infestations reported in recent years. It's worth noting that several HPD inspection requests have been closed "No violations issued," indicating inspections found no code violations despite the original complaints. While the building has a history of various maintenance issues, many of which have received prompt attention, there are ongoing concerns that may impact resident comfort, particularly related to heating systems and building security.
