1098 Grant Avenue is a 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building located in Concourse Village, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Candido Adames. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues over the past few years, with multiple emergency complaints recorded between 2021 and 2022 regarding heat and hot water problems affecting either the entire building or individual apartments. These incidents included two complaints in December 2022, one in June 2022 (resulting in violations), and several others throughout 2021-2022, suggesting ongoing challenges with the building's heating infrastructure.

More recent concerns include a July 2023 complaint about an electric/gas range, though no violations were issued following HPD's inspection. The building has also faced various maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple violations and complaints. In 2024, an open Class A violation was recorded for failing to file the annual bedbug report, while previous violations in 2021-2022 included mold, pest infestation (specifically roaches in Apartment 6), and various heating system access problems.

External building maintenance concerns were noted in a July 2023 ECB violation regarding loose/falling cement/stucco and missing brick/mortar. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with some indicating rat activity, particularly in 2022-2024, though recent inspections in 2025 have shown improved results. While the building has had periodic plumbing and water-related issues, such as a heavy flow water leak complaint in 2019 and notable violations regarding hot water delivery, many complaints have been resolved through HPD interventions, though some continued to recur. The apartment has generally maintained good compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing zero infested units in the most recent filings.
