1157 Grant Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
The property at 1157 Grant Avenue in Concourse Village, a two-story, three-unit building constructed in 1935 and currently owned by Veronica Williams, has been facing ongoing maintenance and safety challenges over the past several years. Most notably, there is an active Department of Buildings (DOB) violation from May 2025 regarding a structurally compromised retaining wall at the rear of the property, which poses potential risks to both the building and adjacent properties. This violation requires the owner to retain a licensed professional engineer to provide drawings by June 30, 2025, and to commence construction work by July 28, 2025.
Additionally, there is an open Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violation from April 2024 related to the failure to file the annual bedbug report, and this same violation has been recurring annually from 2021 through 2024. The building has experienced recurring rodent issues, with multiple instances of rat activity recorded between 2022 and 2024. While there are some compliance inspections that passed, the pattern of initial inspections showing rat activity suggests an ongoing pest management challenge.
The property has also generated complaints regarding maintenance issues, with two "Failure to Maintain" complaints filed in 2023 and 2025, though both have been closed with violations served. An Environmental Control Board violation from October 2023 indicated failure to comply with a DOB Commissioner's order, though this appears to have been resolved with no penalties imposed. The building's inspection history shows a mix of passed compliance checks and violations, indicating an inconsistent record of maintenance and reporting requirements being met.
