1725 East 172nd Street, Bronx, NY 10472

1725 East 172nd Street is a 3-story, 6-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1928, currently owned by Abraham Pollak. The building has experienced several recurring issues over the years, with the most significant being a series of heating and hot water system problems in January 2019, when multiple complaints were filed regarding failures affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. More recently, there was a cooking gas-related complaint in September 2024, which was resolved through HPD intervention.

The building has demonstrated some maintenance compliance difficulties, as evidenced by multiple violations for failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2018 and 2021, though these were all ultimately dismissed in 2024. The property has undergone various inspections and addressed several safety concerns, including the correction of self-closing door issues at both the building entrance and specific apartments in 2023. While there have been rodent-related complaints in the past (notably in 2019 and 2023), the most recent rodent inspection in August 2023 passed.

The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance between 2020 and 2025, with no documented infestations. The property experienced multiple utility issues during the 2019 heating season, including power outages and water-related problems, suggesting some challenges with basic infrastructure systems. However, recent inspections and service requests indicate that most current building systems are being properly maintained, with no major active violations as of the latest data.
