783 Bartholdi Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 783 Bartholdi Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Jacqueline Mckayscott and constructed in 1988, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in 2024. Notably, there are currently two open violations from February 2024 requiring attention: one related to missing smoke detectors and another regarding carbon monoxide detector repairs in Apartment 1.

That same inspection period revealed multiple resolved issues in Apartment 1 concerning defective plaster surfaces, paint requirements, and plumbing fixtures, including problems with the washbasin and various wall/ceiling surfaces. The building has also faced pest control challenges, with a Class C violation for roach infestation documented in February 2024, though this was addressed by April 2024. Recent inspection patterns show the building has undergone regular monitoring for pests, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past two annual filings (2024 and 2025), and successful rodent inspections in 2018 and 2022.

An applied maintenance pattern is evident, with the property owner certifying various repairs by April 2024, including fixes to wall surfaces and plumbing issues. More recently, in May 2024, there was a complaint regarding an electric/gas range that HPD could not inspect due to access issues. While the building shows compliance in certain areas such as rodent and bedbug control, the pattern of maintenance issues, particularly in 2024, suggests ongoing attention to building systems and unit conditions is necessary, with particular focus on life safety systems such as smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
