41 Bruckner Boulevard, Bronx, NY 10454

The 4-story, 7-unit Old Law Tenement at 41 Bruckner Boulevard in Port Morris, built in 1915 and currently owned by Dominique Vabre, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, during August 2024, there were multiple electrical problems documented, including power outages and wiring issues, with some violations issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Apartment 2 has several open violations as of August 2024 related to safety equipment and general maintenance, including missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, exposed wiring, a water leak in the ceiling, various issues with walls and floors, and a broken window sash counterbalance in the kitchen. The building also experienced various maintenance problems in April 2022, including water leaks, wall issues, electrical problems, and unsanitary conditions, with some violations being issued.

The property currently has four active violations with the Department of Buildings from 2023-2024 regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections, and there was a 2019 complaint about illegal conversion that could not be inspected. However, more positively, the building has no recorded bedbug infestations in the past three filing periods (2022-2025), and it passed rodent inspections in 2010, 2011, and most recently in 2023. The recent concentration of violations and service requests related to electrical systems and safety equipment in 2024 suggests ongoing concerns about building maintenance, though many earlier violations from 2022 have been resolved or closed.
