1275 Lafayette Avenue, Bronx, NY 10474
1275 Lafayette Avenue is a 5-story, 40-unit residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Daniel Tineo and located in Hunts Point. The building has experienced a series of maintenance and compliance issues over the past two years, with the most recent concerns including an open complaint about an electric/gas range from February 2025 and multiple instances in 2024 where HPD inspectors were unable to gain access to investigate various complaints, including issues with doors, windows, plumbing, flooring, and ceilings.
The building faced significant violations in late 2024, including a documented roach infestation in apartment 2I, various infrastructure problems such as sloping floors and cracks, and concerns about safety equipment like fire escape clearance. Department of Buildings records show persistent concerns about proper permitting, including multiple complaints about work without permits in 2023-2024, though most of these were found to warrant no violations upon inspection. The property has an active ECB violation from 2024-10-20 regarding maintenance concerns in apartment 2H, and two significant penalties from 2019 remain active: one for failure to maintain the building in a code-compliant manner (affecting exhaust fan placement) and another for unpermitted installation of equipment on the roof.
While there have been periodic issues with rodent activity, as evidenced by inspections in 2024-2025, the building has consistently filed bedbug reports showing no infestations since 2020. Recent housing maintenance code complaints have focused on various building systems and surfaces, though many were closed without resolution verification due to access issues during inspections. The building's history shows ongoing challenges with maintenance and compliance, particularly regarding proper inspection access and response timelines.
