210 West 251st Street, Bronx, NY 10471
The 70-unit, 6-story residential building at 210 West 251st Street in Fieldston, owned by Jay Silver and built in 1960, has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues over the past several years. Most recently, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints in 2025 (June and March) that HPD was unable to properly inspect. The building has also been facing persistent rodent issues, with the latest inspection in June 2025 confirming rat activity, following several similar findings in 2024 and 2023.
Water-related problems were documented in April 2025 involving both plumbing fixtures (basin/sink and bathtub/shower) and ceiling issues requiring paint/plaster repairs. The property has multiple active violations from 2023-2024, including concerning issues with gas dryers and improper venting on multiple floors, and failures to adequately address critical examination requirements. A notable cluster of violations was identified in Apartment 7C, including issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, mold, and pest infestations, all of which were documented in late 2024.
The building's management has received multiple emergency complaints from HPD regarding unsanitary conditions, including mold and pest problems, though many inspections were marked as unable to be completed. Recent environmental control board violations (2023) involve unauthorized gas dryer installations and improper venting. While there have been periods of relative stability, such as the absence of bedbug complaints from 2022-2024, the recurring nature of the maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with property upkeep.
