1412 Fteley Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

1412 Fteley Avenue is a two-story, three-unit residential building located in Parkchester, constructed in 1929 and currently owned by Amara Konteh. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past decade, with the most significant recent events occurring in late 2022 when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding building-wide heat and hot water outages, as well as power outages. During this period, both apartment-level and building-wide complaints were recorded, with HPD unable to access units for inspection of the heat and hot water issues.

Prior to these incidents, the building faced various maintenance challenges including sewage problems in 2020, and heat/hot water issues in late 2018 and early 2020. The building has undergone several inspections and faced multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2020 and 2024, including issues with pest infestations (roaches and mice) in the basement apartment in 2020, and various other maintenance concerns. More recently, in 2024, violations were noted regarding a key-operated lock on a fire escape window in apartment 2R, and the absence of a required notice regarding the building's heating system keyholder.

The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2024, showing zero infested or re-infested units. Rodent inspections between 2012 and 2018 show a mixed record, with multiple failures noted on compliance inspections, though recent reports do not indicate ongoing issues. The building has generally received prompt attention to service requests, with most complaints being closed within a week, though not all complaints resulted in violations being issued.
