3025 Godwin Terrace, Bronx, NY 10463

The six-story, 65-unit building at 3025 Godwin Terrace in Kingsbridge, built in 1926, has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent months, particularly during May 2025 when multiple complaints were filed regarding paint/plaster problems, appliance malfunctions, ventilation system issues, flooring concerns, and unsanitary conditions including mold and pests. While many of these complaints were closed due to HPD's inability to complete inspections, they indicate persistent maintenance challenges.

The building has also faced plumbing and water supply emergencies in June 2025, along with ongoing concerns about deteriorating conditions, as evidenced by a non-emergency paint/plaster complaint for the ceiling that remains open as of July 2025. The property has a documented history of maintenance violations, with a particularly problematic December 2024 inspection of apartment 3B revealing multiple issues including pest infestation, broken windows, inadequate lighting in fire passageways, and various problems with walls, ceilings, and doors. While these violations were eventually closed following repairs, they suggest a pattern of deferred maintenance.

The building's pest management history shows fluctuations in infestation rates, with confirmed cases of bedbugs in 2020, 2021, and 2022, though reports for 2023-2024 indicate no active infestations. Rodent inspections between 2016-2023 reveal consistent rat activity, though the most recent inspection in October 2023 passed compliance standards, suggesting some improvement in pest management. The current owner, Fausto Diaz, has maintained ownership since at least 2019, but the building's age and the frequency of complaints indicate ongoing challenges with maintaining habitable conditions consistent with housing codes.
