1210 Clay Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
1210 Clay Avenue is a 5-story, 11-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1929, currently owned by Hee Yang. The property has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent years, with significant concerns about mold and rodent activity. Most notably, between late 2023 and 2024, there were multiple complaints and violations related to unsanitary conditions, including mold (emergency status), water supply issues, and pest infestations. Recent inspections in 2025 showed the building passed rodent inspection, though previous inspections in 2024 and 2023 indicated rat activity was present.
The building has faced repeated challenges with basic services and maintenance, including heat and hot water systems (with complaints in both 2022 and 2023), window frame issues (multiple complaints in 2023), and various building safety concerns. In April 2024, violations were documented in Apartment 10 regarding window sashes, bathroom conditions, and additional building systems. There is also an ongoing issue with building access control systems, as indicated by open violations from the April 2024 inspection. The property has maintained a consistent record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infested units from 2019 through 2024 filings.
Recent rodent inspections indicate some fluctuations in pest control effectiveness, with both passes and failures recorded between 2022 and 2025. The building's historical records from the Department of Buildings show past concerns regarding egress and safety systems, particularly in 2019 when penalties were imposed for blocked exits and fire escape issues. While many violations have been resolved, as evidenced by certified dates, there remain open violations from 2024 requiring attention. The property's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic systems and periodic issues that affect resident comfort and building safety.
