766 East 215th Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement at 766 East 215th Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Luis Fermin, has experienced recurring plumbing issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints about water supply, shower/bathtub problems, and heating/hot water systems. Between March and June 2025, several violations were issued, particularly concerning plumbing fixtures, with some complaints not resulting in violations but indicating persistent maintenance challenges. The building also has an open lead paint violation in Apartment 4 from December 2024, affecting multiple walls and the kitchen ceiling.

Previous housing violations include hot water exceeding 130F in Apartment 6 and various maintenance issues identified in inspections. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with three failed inspections between 2023 and 2018, though no bedbug infestations have been reported in recent years. Multiple complaints regarding floor, electrical, and plumbing issues were recorded in March 2025, though some inspections were not completed.

The building's owner has faced four separate illegal conversion complaints between 2021 and 2024, but in each case, inspectors were unable to gain access. While a boiler-related complaint in 2024 was found to have no violations, there was a previous violation in 2019 for failure to file an annual boiler inspection report, which was ultimately dismissed. The property has been generally free of severe pest issues, with no bedbug infestations reported since 2019.
