751 Bartholdi Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The three-unit, two-story New Law Tenement building at 751 Bartholdi Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Zari Watkins, was constructed in 1915 and has experienced several notable issues throughout its history. The most significant cluster of problems occurred in late 2018, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding heat and hot water outages, as well as mold issues - all of which were marked as emergencies but ended without successful inspections due to lack of access.

The building has had persistent administrative violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024, though recent reports indicate no infestation cases during these periods, with the 2024 filing showing 0 infested units and 0 eradicated units. More concerning is the current status of several open violations from November 2018 related to safety notices that remain unresolved, including missing postings for smoke detector requirements, gas leak procedures, building registration, and maintenance of a proper inspection certificate. The building's systems underwent inspection in 2018 and were noted to have both heating and hot water issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints.

However, more recent history has shown improvements in pest control, with consistent bedbug reporting showing no infestations since 2019. Rodent inspections conducted in 2011 and 2018 both passed, suggesting at least routine compliance with pest management requirements. The building's age and location in Williamsbridge indicate typical urban challenges, but the pattern of repeated inspection failures to gain access and persistent unresolved safety notice violations from 2018 warrant attention to the building's maintenance responsiveness.
