584 Union Avenue, Bronx, NY 10455

584 Union Avenue is a 6-story, 61-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Joseph Zitolo. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints documented in 2024 and 2025, affecting either the entire building or specific apartments. Most recently, three heat-related complaints were filed in January 2025, with HPD confirming resolution in each case, though one complaint from January 4, 2025, could not be inspected due to access issues.

The building has also faced various maintenance challenges, particularly in the second-floor apartment (2F), where multiple violations were documented in February 2024, including issues with leaky faucets, smoke detector malfunction, mold presence, and water leaks affecting both the bathroom and hallway ceilings. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with inspections showing evidence of rats in November 2023 and September 2023, though some inspections in previous years resulted in passing grades or bait application. The building's maintenance history shows patterns of both pest control challenges and heating system reliability concerns.

While recent bedbug reports from 2022-2024 indicate either no infestations or successful eradication, the building has consistently shown rat activity through various inspections between 2018 and 2023. The property has undergone several permit approvals between 2018 and 2019 for alteration work, though two complaints about unpermitted work were filed in 2019 and 2021, with no violations found upon inspection. Water-related issues have also been a concern, with a heavy flow water leak complaint filed and inspected between May and September 2023, and various plumbing-related violations in 2024. The building's violation history shows that most issues have been addressed and closed, though the recurring nature of heat and pest complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
