Questions about this building
Does 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx have open violations?
Yes. 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx had 10 open violations on September 26, 2026: 10 from HPD. 10 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous.
Is 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 10 open Class C, with nothing filed or new in the last 180 days. 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 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx?
Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 7 Class C violations, all 7 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 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx have active DOB violations?
Yes. 3 active DOB violations. The newest was issued April 24, 2024. 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.
Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx marked completed?
Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since September 28, 2023: a lead paint order, opened November 29, 2023, awarded for $1,125. 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.
What did the latest facade report find at 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx?
Rated SWARMP in the latest facade report, filed January 7, 2026 (inspection cycle 10). SWARMP means safe with a repair and maintenance program. Buildings taller than six stories must have their exterior walls inspected once in every inspection cycle under the city's Facade Inspection Safety Program (every five years under DOB's current rule), and each inspection report is filed with DOB as Safe, SWARMP (safe with a repair and maintenance program) or Unsafe. No Report Filed means DOB has no report for that cycle. The rating is from the latest filing and does not describe the facade today; DOB's page for the building shows anything filed since.
Is 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx rent stabilized?
The building has rent-stabilized apartments on its 2024 registration. That comes from the Rent Guidelines Board's list of buildings with at least one stabilized apartment registered that year. Buildings that registered late are left off, and a 421-a or J-51 building can leave stabilization when its tax benefit ends. A particular apartment's status is for NYS HCR to say.
When was 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx built?

How many apartments does 853 Walton Avenue, Bronx have?

This page is current through September 26, 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.
