756 St Anns Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The 10-story, 480-unit residential building at 756 St Anns Avenue in Longwood, constructed in 2009 and currently owned by Ginny Quiroz, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past year. Most notably, there has been an ongoing pattern of heating and hot water problems, with violations recorded in both December 2024 and June 2025 regarding inadequate service affecting multiple floors. The building has also faced multiple elevator-related complaints throughout 2024, with at least 12 reports of "Multiple Devices on Property" issues, though these appear to have been addressed through various inspections. A concerning cluster of maintenance issues emerged in June 2025, including an open complaint regarding an electric/gas range, and multiple attempts by HPD to inspect complaints related to wall conditions, mold, electrical outlets, and doors/windows, though these inspections were not completed.

The building experienced several code violations in late 2024, including inadequate heat and hot water supply issues affecting apartments 6D and 8E, as well as problems with baseboard heaters and intercom systems. Environmental control issues related to the parking structure were noted in October 2024, resulting in $5,000 in penalties for failing to submit required observation reports. The building has maintained a generally low incidence of bedbug infestations, with most recent reports indicating zero affected units, though one report from December 2023 noted one infested unit that was subsequently treated. Rodent activity has been documented throughout 2024, particularly in early 2024 with initial inspections showing rat activity, though more recent inspections in 2023-2024 indicate continued bait applications suggesting ongoing pest management efforts.

Recent complaints (as of June 2025) have also included issues with various building systems and conditions, including unsanitary conditions and multiple maintenance requests that required follow-up inspections, though many of these complaints have been addressed or closed through official channels. The building's management has shown responsiveness to some maintenance issues, with various problems being addressed and marked as resolved. However, the pattern of heating, elevator, and general maintenance complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure. The property manager's ability to consistently complete required inspections in response to tenant complaints has been variable, with several instances of inspections being unable to be completed and requiring tenants to submit new service requests for proper follow-up. The building's age, combined with the high number of units and recent construction status, presents typical urban building maintenance challenges that have resulted in periodic system failures and infrastructure issues affecting resident comfort and convenience.
