1360 Nelson Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452

The five-story, 27-unit tenement building at 1360 Nelson Avenue in Highbridge, currently owned by Consolato Cicciu, has experienced recurrent infrastructure issues, particularly related to heating and plumbing systems. Most recently, in April 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, though these were reportedly resolved promptly following HPD intervention. A significant number of similar heat-related incidents occurred in late 2024, including several building-wide complaints that were confirmed to be resolved upon inspection.

The building has also faced plumbing challenges, with multiple complaints about water supply issues in 2025, some requiring emergency response. The property has documented maintenance violations, including an April 2024 inspection that revealed mice infestation issues in Apartment 2B, though this and other violations were subsequently marked as closed. More recent inspections have shown the building experiencing recurring rodent issues, with multiple rat activity reports and failed inspections throughout 2024-2025, despite some baiting efforts being applied.

Additional concerns include water leakage problems affecting the building's 5th story, as documented in open violations from April 2024. Historical records indicate previous maintenance challenges, including boiler issues in 2021. While the building has passed recent bedbug inspections showing zero infestation counts, the persistent nature of the heating, plumbing, and rodent issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges for the property.
