2490 3Rd Avenue, Bronx, NY 10454

The five-story, 28-unit residential building at 2490 3rd Avenue in Mott Haven, owned by Adi Altmark, was constructed in 2018 and has experienced several notable maintenance and compliance issues since its opening. Most recently, in 2023-2024, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage, with inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) confirming these issues. A persistent concern in 2023 involves construction lead dust, which remains under investigation by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH).

The building has also faced regulatory challenges, including two separate violations in 2022 and 2023 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though more recent filings (2022-2025) indicate no documented bedbug infestations during those periods. More recent developments in 2024 raised significant safety concerns, including failure to maintain building systems, which resulted in a partial vacate order related to hazardous conditions at the cornice and parapet area. The building's current compliance record shows active violations from 2024 regarding failure to properly file energy benchmarking reports.

However, the building has maintained a generally good track record in other areas, including passing rodent inspections in 2023, and no recorded bedbug infestations in the past three reporting periods. Historical records from 2019-2020 indicate various construction and safety compliance actions, including three stop-work orders related to construction safety compliance, though these were fully rescinded. The property has undergone regular maintenance inspections, with active repairs and compliance measures being documented through various permits issued between 2019-2020, covering multiple aspects of building operations and systems.
