1015 Longwood Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459

1015 Longwood Avenue is a 5-story, 23-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Maria Irizarry. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with seven documented complaints between October 2022 and January 2023, all affecting the entire building. These emergency complaints were consistently resolved, with tenants reporting restoration of services, though the pattern suggests an ongoing maintenance challenge.

The building is currently showing three open violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports for 2022, 2023, and 2024, indicating potential non-compliance with housing maintenance code requirements. A significant water leak incident was reported and resolved in January 2022. The building's history includes two flooring/stairs complaints in August 2018 that could not be inspected due to access issues.

On the pest control front, the property has generally demonstrated compliance, with an entire building bedbug report in 2021 showing zero infested units, though this was followed by three consecutive bedbug report violations from 2021-2024. Rodent inspections have shown variable results between 2015 and 2019, with one instance of rat activity in May 2019, though most inspections during this period passed successfully. While the building maintains basic compliance with most housing codes, the recurring heat system issues and open bedbug report violations warrant attention, with particular focus on the building's temperature maintenance systems and compliance with pest management reporting requirements.
