1009 Adee Avenue, Bronx, NY 10469

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 1009 Adee Avenue in Williamsbridge, owned by Frank Blake, has experienced several significant maintenance issues and violations since 2014. Most recently, in late 2024, there have been multiple complaints regarding water drainage problems, with five separate incidents of "Failure to Retain Water/Improper Drainage" reported between September and November 2024. The building was also issued an Environmental Control Board violation in October 2024 regarding improper gutter leader connections, resulting in a $655 penalty that remains outstanding.

The property has faced recurring issues with bedbug reporting compliance, with open violations dating back to 2021-2024 for failing to file the required annual bedbug report. In terms of other maintenance issues, the building has had several concerning events in recent years. There were two asbestos complaints in 2024, with one receiving a correction letter and another resulting in no violations.

The property has experienced plumbing problems, including bathtub/shower issues and mold (September 2024), though these were investigated with no violations cited. A heat and hot water complaint for the entire building was filed in February 2022, but inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the problem. The building's rodent inspections show a pattern of violations from 2014 to 2018, with multiple failures for "Other Reasons," though compliance was achieved in 2017 and 2022. While some issues have been resolved, the property continues to have several active violations and maintenance concerns that affect overall habitability and maintenance compliance.
