1725 St Peters Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461

The two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building at 1725 St. Peters Avenue in Westchester Square, owned by Maddalena Orecchio, has experienced significant maintenance issues throughout 2025, particularly in May, with recurring problems related to heating, hot water, and cooking gas.

Between May 15-18, 2025, multiple emergency service requests were filed and subsequently closed regarding heat/hot water issues affecting the entire building, while there are currently two unresolved complaints from May 17-18 concerning cooking gas problems. The building has a documented history of infrastructure challenges, including three separate heating/hot water emergencies and multiple cooking gas issues between May 15-18, 2025. Previous years show various violations and maintenance needs, including pest control issues in 2019 (specifically roach infestation in apartment 2F), and safety concerns such as an illegal double-cylinder lock at the building entrance.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs since 2021, with no reported infestations in the annual bedbug filings through 2025. Historical records also indicate rodent activity in 2019, with multiple inspection failures in 2010, though recent rodent control measures appear to have improved. The Department of Buildings has an active complaint regarding illegal conversion from May 2025 that remains unresolved, and there are two valid building permits issued (for plumbing and electrical work) in early 2019.
