1249 Webster Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The four-story New Law tenement building at 1249 Webster Avenue in Concourse Village, owned by Kenny Nasab, has a significant number of maintenance issues as of July 2025. Most notably, there are open violations in cellar apartment 1C related to mold (including more than 10 square feet of visible mold), water leaks, defective ventilation systems, refrigerator problems, and the need for proper smoke/carbon monoxide detectors. Recent service requests from September 2024 indicate recurring issues with water leaks, ventilation systems, wall conditions, and appliance maintenance, though inspectors were unable to access the premises for many of these complaints.

Between December 2023 and early 2024, multiple inspections noted various electrical, plumbing, and unsanitary conditions, with some violations being issued and others not. The building has undergone rodent inspections with mixed results, experiencing some failures in 2024 but passing inspections in 2025. Importantly, the building has maintained a bedbug-free record for several years, with no reported infestations between 2019 and 2024.

Two illegal conversion complaints were filed in late 2024, but inspectors were unable to gain access during their final inspection attempts in 2025. The property has a documented history of moisture-related issues, with multiple mold complaints over the past year, and the building is currently facing multiple open violations that require correction under New York City's Housing Maintenance Code. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of unresolved access issues for inspections, though some violations have been addressed through inspections. While the building's structure dates back to 1929, it continues to experience typical maintenance challenges associated with older tenement buildings, particularly regarding moisture control, ventilation, and appliance maintenance.
