1025 College Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

1025 College Avenue is a three-story, three-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Don Bichoupa N. The property has experienced recurring maintenance and health concerns over the past several years, with the most pressing issues being heating system problems and a persistent rodent infestation. Most recently, in November 2023, there was a heat and hot water complaint affecting the entire building, though this was resolved within four days. The building has had multiple rodent-related violations, with inspection reports from 2025 showing regular bait application, though inspections in early 2025 still indicated rat activity.

There are also ongoing requirements for annual bedbug reporting that remain unresolved, with open violations from 2023 and 2024 citing non-compliance with filing requirements. The building's maintenance history reveals several internal infrastructure and sanitary issues, particularly affecting Apartment 1 on the first floor. Violations documented in December 2022 noted broken wood floors, a rotted kitchen cabinet, and peeling paint requiring repair and repainting. The property has faced various sanitary complaints, including mold, pests, and water leakage issues.

While some conditions were resolved without violations (such as mold and water leak inspections), other problems resulted in issued violations, particularly concerning pest control issues. The presence of multiple mobile food vendor-related complaints in 2022 and 2023 adds to the building's complex history, though specific details of these issues weren't provided in the summary. The building's documented history, particularly the ongoing rodent and heat system issues, suggests persistent challenges with building maintenance and compliance with housing regulations. The most recent inspection records indicate that while some issues have been addressed, particularly those requiring immediate attention, others remain unresolved and potentially affect the living conditions within the building.
