734 Bartholdi Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The two-family house at 734 Bartholdi Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Halton Benjamin, has a documented history of maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there were problems with insufficient heating in December 2022, which while eventually addressed, indicates potential concerns with the building's heating system.

That same month, a ceiling paint/plaster issue was reported and inspected, resulting in violations being issued. Earlier in 2022, between May 16 and May 27, multiple maintenance issues were reported including concerns with a cabinet, plumbing problems involving a basin/sink, and a slow water leak; while violations were issued in connection with the plumbing complaint, the cabinet and water leak complaints were closed without any violations being recorded. The building, constructed in 1930, is a typical two-story structure containing two residential units.

The documented complaints, while all having been addressed and closed, suggest a period of various maintenance challenges in 2022, particularly during the spring and winter months of that year. The issues span multiple systems including heating, plumbing, and general building maintenance, with the most recent complaint dating back to December 2022. It's worth noting that the majority of these complaints were handled by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), with one involving the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) regarding heating issues.
