600 Logan Avenue, Bronx, NY 10465

The two-family residence at 600 Logan Avenue in Throgs Neck, owned by Konstantinos Prentzas, is a 1960 single-story building currently facing significant maintenance issues. Most notably, in August 2023, there were multiple related incidents involving water damage and mold, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) documenting violations for water leaks (including heavy flow and damp spots), mold conditions, and problems with paint/plaster on walls and ceilings.

The building currently has open Class B violations related to water leaks and mold conditions in the ceilings of the 4th room from the north in both apartments, as well as issues with plastered surfaces and paint uniformity requirements in multiple rooms. Although these violations were recorded and inspections were conducted between August 19-27, 2023, showing the building experienced multiple related issues in a short timeframe, there was a significant response from HPD, with most complaints being closed within a week, though some violations remain open.

The building's history includes a rodent inspection in 2019 that resulted in a passing grade, and a complaint regarding illegal conversion in 2020 that was marked as closed when inspectors were unable to gain access after multiple attempts. Given the recent cluster of water-related issues and mold problems in August 2023, particularly with both emergency and non-emergency complaints being filed, there appears to be an ongoing pattern of maintenance challenges that may affect resident comfort and safety. The August 2023 violations include both emergency situations (such as the mold complaints that were upgraded to Class B violations) and non-emergency maintenance issues, suggesting a range of building condition concerns that require attention.
