1075 Nelson Avenue is a 6-story, 37-unit residential building located in Highbridge, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Douglas Peterson. The property has experienced recurring elevator issues, with multiple complaints about single-device operation and lack of alternate service from 2024 through 2025, including an active complaint as of June 2025. The building has faced significant maintenance challenges in 2025, particularly regarding plumbing and heating systems, with numerous complaints about heat and hot water outages in April 2025, though some of these were subsequently reported as resolved.
There are ongoing concerns about building systems: a Class C violation from December 2024 regarding inadequate heat supply in Apartment 1D remains open. The property has a documented history of rodent issues, with failed inspections in May 2025 and November 2024, though previous inspections from 2022-2024 showed consistent passing results.

Recent inspections have revealed several open violations, including one regarding elevator service and another concerning the facade inspection report required under LL11/98.

Bedbug reports from 2019-2024 show limited infestations, with only one confirmed case in 2019 and none reported in recent years. While many historical violations have been resolved, the building currently faces challenges with elevator service continuity, heating system reliability, and maintaining timely responses to HPD inspections.
