1190 Grant Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

1190 Grant Avenue is a two-story, three-unit residential building constructed in 1935 and currently owned by Aloma Jarvis. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, most recently in February 2025, when the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect the reported lack of heat and hot water affecting the entire building.

This followed a similar incident in October 2018, when HPD was informed that heat and hot water had been restored after a tenant complaint. The building has been subject to multiple Housing Maintenance Code inspections and violations, including four consecutive notices from 2021-2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though recent filings from 2024 and 2023 indicate no infested units. Rodent activity has been a significant concern, particularly in 2023, with multiple inspections showing "Rat Activity" in January, March, and July of that year, though the most recent inspections in 2024-2025 have all passed successfully.

A notable habitability issue occurred in 2018 when a mold problem was documented in a window sill of the second-floor apartment. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, recent records show improvements in rodent control and bedbug reporting compliance. The property's heating system continues to be a recurring concern, with the most recent complaint remaining unresolved through proper inspection channels.
