769 Arnow Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

769 Arnow Avenue is a 6-story, 49-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Joseph Yasgur. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues, particularly during 2025, with multiple complaints about heat/hot water problems across several dates in April, some necessitating emergency responses. There have also been ongoing concerns with window frames, resulting in violations issued by HPD in April 2025.

The property has a documented history of pest control challenges, with violations for rodent infestations in apartment 5A observed in late 2024, and multiple pest-related complaints in April 2025, though recent bedbug reports show zero infestation cases between 2021-2024. Building systems have required attention, with multiple elevator-related complaints and violations on record between 2018-2023, including active ECB violations regarding elevator safety systems from 2020. The building's structural and maintenance history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing issues. Notable violations include problems with self-closing doors in the public hall on the 4th story (open violation as of late 2024), and a lack of hot water at all fixtures in apartment 5A.

The building's exterior has required maintenance attention, as evidenced by a 2020 violation related to damaged mortar joints and parapet walls. Historical rodent inspections show varying results, with some years passing and others noting activity, though recent inspections in 2021 and 2022 passed successfully. While the building has experienced multiple maintenance challenges, recent bedbug reports and rodent inspections suggest some improvement in pest management, though the frequency of heating system complaints in 2025 indicates ongoing concerns with building systems. The property has also faced various administrative issues, including failure to submit required reports and display energy efficiency scores, with some violations remaining active as of 2021.
