4138 Barnes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466
The 51-unit, 6-story NEW LAW TENEMENT building at 4138 Barnes Avenue in Wakefield, owned by Ameet Sachdev and constructed in 1927, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there has been a pattern of heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building, with multiple emergency complaints filed between December 2024 and January 2025, though HPD inspections generally confirmed resolution of these issues.
Other concerning recent incidents include an ongoing plumbing issue from March 2025 resulting in violations, a safety violation related to smoke detectors from December 2024, and various maintenance problems in apartment 6C discovered during a May 2024 inspection, including water heater issues, defective plaster surfaces, and painting concerns. The building has also faced structural and maintenance challenges during 2024, including an open violation regarding brick and mortar repairs needed on the west exterior wall of the 6th story, though several other violations from July 2024 were subsequently closed. Historical records show recurring rodent inspection failures between 2017 and 2024, with the most recent inspections in 2024 also noting compliance issues.
The elevator system appears to have had problems in 2023, with complaints filed but ultimately found to have no violations at inspection. Bedbug reporting from 2019-2024 shows generally low incidence, with only two infested units reported in 2019. While several construction permits were issued in 2019 for work including electrical and plumbing systems, more recent complaint history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding building-wide systems such as heating and water supply.
