507 Tinton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10455

507 Tinton Avenue is a 3-story, 3-unit residential building constructed in 1995, currently owned by Jonathan Lopez. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with the most recent complaints occurring in January 2025, and previous similar complaints documented throughout 2021, indicating this as an ongoing maintenance concern.

In addition to these heating system problems, there have been several significant plumbing-related issues, including water supply problems in February 2021 affecting the third-floor apartment, and multiple violations documented in 2021 related to inadequate water supply, electrical wiring, and gas appliance issues in the same unit. The building has also faced challenges with bedbug report compliance, as evidenced by four open violations from 2021 through 2024 regarding the annual bedbug reporting requirement. Inspection records reveal a pattern of maintenance issues during 2021, including multiple instances where Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect reported problems.

While some violations have been closed, including a broken light switch and defective ceiling fixture repair requirement in the third-floor apartment, several violations remain open as of the most recent inspection dates. The building's rodent inspections show mostly passing results from 2010 through 2023, with one failure noted in 2017 for "Other Reasons." Two significant complaints were filed regarding the property: a gas utility referral in 2021 that resulted in no violation being warranted after inspection, and an illegal conversion complaint in 2020 that was denied access for inspection. The recurring nature of heating system complaints, particularly the most recent issues in early 2025, suggests this remains a persistent challenge for residents.
