2516 Barker Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The two-family house at 2516 Barker Avenue in Allerton, owned by Abraham Wieder, has experienced several maintenance issues throughout 2021, with a particular cluster of problems emerging from June to December 2021. The building, constructed in 1950, underwent multiple inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) during this period, with some cases resulting in violations, while others were either closed without violations or were not able to be inspected due to lack of access.

The most significant cluster of complaints occurred in December 2021, when multiple issues were reported simultaneously, including problems with plumbing (basin/sink), window frames, a slow water leak, mold (unsanitary condition), and flooring concerns. Among these, the plumbing issues (both basin/sink and water supply problems) received particular attention, with one being classified as emergency-level.

Additional maintenance concerns earlier in 2021 included multiple reports of plumbing issues (bathtub/shower problems), flooring concerns, and window frame maintenance needs, though most of these complaints were ultimately closed without violations being cited. Notably, some complaints did result in issued violations, and detailed information about specific violations can be found at www.nyc.gov/hpd. The various maintenance issues were resolved over time, with most complaints being officially closed between late 2021 and early 2022.
