942 East 215th Street, Bronx, NY 10469

The three-story, seven-unit residential building at 942 East 215th Street in Williamsbridge, owned by David Gatenio, was constructed in 1930 as a New Law Tenement. The property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant problems occurring in July 2022 when multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions including pest infestations, garbage storage problems, and various plumbing issues including radiator problems.

During the same period, building-wide heat and hot water issues were reported and subsequently resolved. The building received several Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2022, including problems with fire retardant materials, an infestation of mice in air passageways, and multiple safety concerns involving broken paving in the east yard and defective steps in the public hall.

More recent maintenance history has shown improvement, with no bedbug reports filed in the last three reporting periods (2022-2025) and successful rodent inspections in December 2018 and August 2022, both resulting in a passing status. The only other notable complaint in recent years was a heat and hot water issue in November 2022, which was promptly addressed within one day. The building's condition has stabilized over the past two years, with no significant recurring issues reported since the 2022 maintenance problems, and the property owner has taken steps to address code violations promptly when cited, as evidenced by the certification of violation corrections in August 2022.
