2721 Wallace Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

2721 Wallace Avenue is a 2-story, 3-unit residential building located in Allerton, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Hershy Silberstein. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water system issues, with ten documented complaints between November 2023 and February 2024, all of which were categorized as emergencies. Additional maintenance concerns surfaced in January 2024 involving mold, ceiling damage, and a slow water leak, though inspectors were unable to access the affected areas.

The building has multiple open violations as of 2024, including issues related to a defective building entrance lock, inadequate heat supply in one apartment, and problems with public hall stairs and ceiling surfaces. Recent inspections show a mixed maintenance history, with the most concerning ongoing violation relating to the building's heating system access. However, the property has successfully passed recent rodent inspections in 2024, with the most recent bedbug report for 2023-2024 showing no infestations.

The building has experienced significant maintenance issues since late 2023, with multiple complaints requiring HPD involvement, though many inspection attempts were hindered by access issues. While there were numerous heating system complaints during this period, it's worth noting that there have been no recorded heating system violations in recent inspections. The property has also shown compliance with rodent control measures, though historical data from 2015-2017 indicates previous rat activity that was subsequently addressed.
