679 West 239th Street, Bronx, NY 10463

679 West 239th Street in Riverdale is a 6-story, 76-unit apartment building constructed in 1960, currently managed by 679 Owners Corp. The building has experienced several recurring maintenance issues, most notably in 2024 with multiple sewage-related complaints in August, and a water leak issue in April that resulted in violations. In 2023, multiple violations were documented in apartment 6D regarding water damage and plaster issues, while apartment 6L has open violations as of 2024 including problems with kitchen cabinets, vermin infestation, bathroom tiles, plaster surfaces, and a missing closet door.

The building's infrastructure has faced significant attention, particularly with persistent elevator-related complaints between 2020-2021, though inspections generally found no violations warranting penalties. Current active violations relate to the failure to submit mandatory engineering reports for multiple years (2020-2023) and a FISP technical report. Environmental controls show consistent monitoring with no bedbug infestations reported in the past eight years.

The property has maintained compliance with housing maintenance codes regarding pest control, though recent inspections have revealed various maintenance deficiencies requiring attention. Recent complaints (2024) suggest ongoing issues with sanitary maintenance, though these were investigated without resulting violations. The building has received multiple permit approvals for construction and maintenance work between 2019-2020, indicating active property management and maintenance efforts.
