1957 Bronxdale Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

1957 Bronxdale Avenue is a 4-story, 77-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1929 and currently owned by Antonino Triarsi. The property has experienced significant recurring issues with heat and hot water, particularly evident in 2024-2025, with seven emergency complaints regarding these essential services since October 2024. The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to these heating system failures, with resolutions verified by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) through tenant confirmation.

In 2023, multiple violations were documented in Apartment 33, including problems with pest infestations (roaches and mice), heating system inadequacies, and missing safety devices (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors). The building also faced various maintenance challenges in 2022, including defective locking mechanisms and window issues, as well as a notable February 2023 violation concerning locked access to the heating system. Recent inspections and reports indicate generally stable pest control conditions, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years (2021-2024), though previous records from 2019 showed three units affected at one point.

The property has maintained some positive compliance indicators, including a passed rodent inspection in January 2023 and no recent reports of unsanitary conditions. A significant environmental control board violation was issued in July 2021 regarding failure to comply with a commissioner's order, with a penalty of $2,500, though the status indicates it was eventually resolved. The building's documented history spans various maintenance issues, but recent reports suggest improved stability regarding bedbugs and other pests. However, the recurring heat and hot water problems remain the most pressing concern in the building's recent history.
