4045 Wilder Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466

The property at 4045 Wilder Avenue is a two-story, 3-unit residential building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Gail Richards. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing being pest problems, as evidenced by three similar complaints in March 2025.

There have also been multiple electrical system issues, including two power outages and lighting problems in 2023, with one notable electrical violation issued in October 2023 related to inadequate ceiling fixture power supply in the first-story public hall. Other maintenance concerns include unsanitary conditions documented in February 2023, affecting various systems like heating, hot water, and general maintenance issues like ceiling problems and cabinet concerns. The building's history includes significant past violations from 2018, when it was found to have been illegally converted into five rooms on the first story, increasing occupancy beyond the legally approved limit.

During this period, there were multiple violations for unauthorized electrical work and issues with occupancy regulations, though these have since been resolved. The property has maintained consistent bedbug reporting compliance, with no reported infestations in the last two filing periods (2024 and 2021), with the most recent report showing zero infested units and successful eradication. While most recent service requests have been addressed promptly, including inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), many were closed without violations being issued, suggesting some complaints may not have been fully substantiated upon inspection.
