Questions about this building

Does 299 East 158 Street, Bronx have open violations?

Yes. 299 East 158 Street, Bronx had 214 open violations on September 27, 2026: 212 from HPD and 2 from OATH/ECB. 98 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 12 years, since January 11, 2014.

Is 299 East 158 Street, Bronx getting better or worse?

New violations are coming in faster than certifications are filed. 57 new Class C against 0 certifications filed in the last 180 days. That window ends September 27, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 299 East 158 Street, Bronx?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 12 Class C violations, all 12 by the original certify-by date. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.

Does 299 East 158 Street, Bronx have an OATH hearing coming up?

Yes. A hearing on a DOB summons is set for October 30, 2026. DOB summonses are heard at OATH, the city's hearings office, and OATH can move a hearing to a later date. When nobody shows up, the summons is decided by default, the costliest way one ends.

Does 299 East 158 Street, Bronx have active DOB violations?

Yes. 5 active DOB violations, most of them for low-pressure boilers. The newest was issued November 14, 2025. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.

Is 299 East 158 Street, Bronx in housing court?

Yes. 2 open housing court cases, most of them heat and hot water cases. The newest opened May 18, 2026. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.

Has DOB received complaints about 299 East 158 Street, Bronx?

Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. It was filed August 20, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 299 East 158 Street, Bronx marked completed?

Yes. 5 completed HPD emergency repair orders since September 29, 2023, awarded for $2,579 in total. The most recent of the 5, a general construction order, was opened June 3, 2026. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.

When was 299 East 158 Street, Bronx built?

The city's record gives 1931 as the year 299 East 158 Street, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a walk-up apartment building with 5 floors.

How many apartments does 299 East 158 Street, Bronx have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 14 residential units at 299 East 158 Street, Bronx. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on OATH hearing dates, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, HPD emergency repair orders and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 27, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus OATH hearing dates, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, HPD emergency repair orders and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
