276 St Anns Avenue, Bronx, NY 10454

The 13-unit, 5-story tenement building at 276 St. Ann's Avenue in Mott Haven, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by Jose Betancourt, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past few years.

Most notably, there are ongoing bedbug reporting violations, with active notices from 2022 and 2023 indicating non-compliance with annual reporting requirements. Recent plumbing and maintenance issues were documented in 2024, including multiple violations in Apartment 11 regarding toilet tank security, and violations related to a water closet bowl connection. Apartment 4 has documented problems from 2022 involving water leaks and plaster damage in the kitchen ceiling, though these violations were previously issued in 2024.

The building has a concerning history of a vehicle impact incident in 2021, which resulted in structural stability concerns, though this violation is currently listed as active without a clear disposition. In terms of maintenance inspections, the building has generally passed rodent inspections consistently from 2010 through 2023, and while there were 311 service requests in January 2022 regarding ceiling issues, these were subsequently closed following HPD inspection. Various other violations have been documented and resolved, including an encumbering air conditioner protruding from a fire escape, and a requirement to repaint a specific wall in the public stair area on the 5th story, indicating ongoing attention to building maintenance is required.
