2518 Barker Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The two-family house at 2518 Barker Avenue in Allerton, owned by Abraham Wieder, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past five years. Most recently, in August 2024, there was an indoor air quality complaint that resulted in a notice being sent to the property owner.

The building faced significant plumbing and heating challenges in May 2021, with multiple complaints about water leaks (heavy flow), heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building, and problems with both bathtub/shower and basin/sink plumbing. While violations were issued for some of these conditions, others were resolved through inspections and corrective actions.

The fall of 2020 was particularly problematic, with multiple emergency complaints including heat/hot water issues, electrical problems affecting both lighting and no lighting situations, door/water concerns, and flooring/stairs issues, though inspections resulted in varying outcomes regarding violations. Most recently, in August 2024, a complaint regarding the Certificate of Occupancy was investigated but found to have "No Violation Warranted" at the time of inspection. The building, constructed in 1950 and comprising two stories, appears to have recurring maintenance issues primarily related to heating systems, plumbing, and electrical systems, particularly during the 2020-2021 period, though more recent complaints have been less frequent.
