6425 Broadway, Bronx, NY 10471

The 6425 Broadway building in North Riverdale is a 13-story Class A residential building constructed in 1974, currently owned by Akshay Sachdev and containing 57 units. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water system issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints and violations related to inadequate hot water supply affecting entire buildings and individual apartments. There is also a significant ongoing concern with rodent activity, with inspections showing consistent rat activity from 2022 through 2025, including recent violations in April, May, and June 2025. The building's facade has been a major focus of attention, with multiple Environmental Control Board violations issued against Prisma Realty LLC in 2023 for unsafe balconies, spalling, and cracked concrete conditions, with penalties totaling $10,000.

These facade issues led to a partial vacate order requiring all balconies on specified exposures to be vacated entirely. Other notable maintenance concerns include problems with doors and windows in apartments 2D and 11E, including defective window hardware and door security issues. The building's inspection history reveals recurring infrastructure challenges, with several active violations related to boiler operation, building safety inspections, and facade maintenance. While there have been periods of bedbug activity in 2019-2020, most recent reports from 2022-2024 show no infestations.

The property has maintained regular compliance with Local Law 188/17 requirements, though there are currently some active complaints regarding elevator service and compliance inspections that remain unresolved. Recent payments for emergency heating system repairs and rodent control measures were made, but the persistent nature of these issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's history includes routine inspections and compliance checks, with most violations being addressed through proper certification, though some notably remain active as of 2025, particularly regarding facade conditions and heating system access. The report covers data up to October 2023 and the current understanding as of July 2025, identifying key persistent issues without making specific recommendations or interpretations beyond the presented data.
