660 St Anns Avenue, Bronx, NY 10455

The 15-unit, 4-story building at 660 St. Anns Avenue in Longwood, owned by Joseph Zitolo and constructed in 1930, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with cooking gas supply, with multiple emergency complaints filed between December 2024 and April 2025, affecting apartments 4B and 2C.

The building has also faced ongoing unsanitary conditions, including reports of rodent activity, with the most recent inspection in July 2025 confirming such activity, following several previous rat inspections indicating similar issues. Health and housing complaints from 2025 indicated problems with mold, plumbing issues in bathrooms, and ceiling conditions, while earlier violations in 2024 revealed concerns about smoke and carbon monoxide detector compliance in apartment 3B, and various maintenance issues including broken plaster surfaces in multiple units. The property has a documented history of building integrity concerns, with complaints about structural stability in 2022, though these were subsequently dismissed.

An ECB violation from May 2022 noted water damage, mold, and paint issues in apartment 4B, and there have been persistent issues requiring multiple inspections and follow-ups over the years. While the building has maintained a zero-incidence rate for bedbugs in recent years (2019-2025), the ongoing rodent problems and various housing code violations suggest continuing maintenance challenges. The most recent health inspections (2025) have shown some violations, with follow-up inspections planned, indicating an active process of addressing these issues.
