1456 White Plains Road, Bronx, NY 10462

This 2-story, 3-unit residential building at 1456 White Plains Road in Parkchester, built in 1930 and currently owned by Jamir Howlader, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues over recent years, particularly affecting Unit 2 on the second floor. The most significant recent problems include multiple heat/hot water issues in February 2022, an electrical power outage in May 2022, and a recurring pattern of electrical problems, including a December 2019 no-lighting incident that resulted in violations.

The building has faced persistent infrastructure challenges, particularly in 2018, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding electrical outlets, water leaks, plumbing issues, and unsanitary conditions including mold and pest problems. These issues were documented across various complaint types, with specific violations noted such as defective bathroom ventilation, electrical fixtures, and kitchen sink problems in Unit 2.

The Department of Buildings recorded two gas-related complaints in late 2018 regarding potentially illegal installations, though inspections were unable to confirm violations, and a rodent inspection from 2012 showed compliance with passing status. While many earlier violations have been closed, there remains at least one open violation from 2019 related to a broken sink waste line connection in Unit 2. The building's documented history shows a pattern of electrical and plumbing issues requiring emergency responses, with the most recent significant incidents occurring in 2022, suggesting ongoing maintenance challenges that have persisted over multiple years and various building systems.
