Questions about this building

Yes. 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx had 12 open violations on September 26, 2026: 12 from HPD. 10 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous.
Is 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 10 open Class C, with 0 certifications filed and 1 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends September 26, 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 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx?
Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 4 Class C violations: 3 by the original certify-by date, 1 after it. 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.
Is 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx in housing court?
Yes. 1 open housing court case, opened February 9, 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 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx?
Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the last 12 months, a conversion complaint. It was filed October 19, 2025. 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 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx marked completed?
Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since September 28, 2023: an electrical order, opened March 27, 2026, awarded for $5,200. 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.
Does 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx have a certificate of occupancy?
Its latest certificate of occupancy is temporary, renewed September 21, 2026. A certificate of occupancy says how a building may be used and occupied. A temporary one lets people move in while work finishes and has to be renewed until DOB issues the final one. DOB's records here start in July 2012, so an older certificate may not show.
When was 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx built?
The city's record gives 2022 as the year 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as an elevator apartment building with 5 floors.
How many apartments does 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx have?
The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 13 residential units at 686 Eagle Avenue, Bronx. The count is for the whole tax lot.
Where do these numbers come from?
