615 Pelham Parkway North, Bronx, NY 10467

The 5-story, 47-unit residential building at 615 Pelham Parkway North, owned by Anthony Gazivoda and constructed in 1926, has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most concerning are the recurring heat and hot water problems, with complaints logged in March and April 2025, though inspections found varying results regarding violations. The building has faced multiple sanitation challenges, particularly in Unit D19, which has been subject to several housing maintenance code violations for pest infestations and appliance issues including refrigeration problems, electrical outlet defects, and various plumbing concerns between late 2024 and early 2025.

Additionally, there were violations related to various apartment conditions including bathroom fixtures, door frames, and window systems. The building's recent history also shows problematic maintenance patterns, including multiple 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code violations in late 2024 involving unsanitary conditions, electric systems, and appliance issues. There have been multiple failed rodent inspections throughout 2023-2024, although compliance was achieved in some subsequent inspections. Previous years show a history of work without proper permits, particularly in 2022, though recent permits have been issued and properly documented.

The building has maintained a bedbug-free status in recent reporting periods from 2021 through 2025, and while there were various Environmental Control Board violations noted between 2019 and 2023 for construction and safety issues, most have been resolved, with some notably concerning violations regarding construction work and equipment safety requirements from 2020-2021 involving commercial equipment installations and air conditioner support systems. The property has demonstrated some level of responsiveness to HPD inspections and violations, with many cases being resolved through repairs or corrections, though there are currently open violations as of 2025-03 related to pest control and electrical systems in Unit D19. Historical data shows a pattern of maintenance issues requiring attention, particularly involving electrical systems, plumbing, and appliance maintenance. Despite these challenges, the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no documented infestations since at least 2019.
