1753 Seddon Street, Bronx, NY 10461

The three-unit, three-story building at 1753 Seddon Street in Westchester Square, owned by Winston Douglas, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns occurring in July 2024. During this period, multiple emergency complaints were filed and subsequently closed, including problems with heating/hot water, water leaks, ceiling damage, and electrical outages.

Notably, the building currently has multiple open violations from July 2024, primarily affecting the third-floor apartment (Apartment 3), including issues with hot water supply, ceiling plaster and paint conditions, and reported rodent infestations involving both mice and roaches. The building's history shows recurring problems with both heating systems and pest control, with numerous heat/hot water complaints throughout 2023 and documented pest issues in early 2023.

The Department of Buildings records from 2019-2020 indicate more serious concerns, including a full vacate order related to building shaking/vibrating issues in December 2019, though three subsequent failure to comply with vacate order complaints from 2020 resulted in no violations being found at the time of inspection. A 2019 fire-related violation remains active. The building has undergone several rodent inspections between 2019 and 2023, with mixed results including both passed and failed inspections, suggesting ongoing challenges with pest control despite some improvements shown by recent compliance inspections in 2023.
