1057 Hoe Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459
The 52-unit, 8-story New Law Tenement building at 1057 Hoe Avenue in Longwood, owned by Carlos Hernandez, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there has been a recurring pattern of heat and hot water problems, with multiple complaints received in late 2024 and early 2025, including three separate heating system complaints in December 2024 alone. Recent inspections in May 2025 revealed open violations related to plumbing (bathtub/shower) and window frame issues.
The building has also faced structural and safety challenges, with violations in 2019 regarding non-fireproof material in egress stairs and a wooden garbage staging platform, though these were resolved. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent issues with individual units in Apartment 8A, including mold, plumbing problems, and various maintenance violations documented in late 2024 and early 2025. There have been multiple elevator-related complaints and violations between 2020-2022, with concerns about maintenance and safety features. The property has undergone several inspections for rodent activity, with a notable rat activity report in March 2025, though a subsequent compliance inspection in May 2025 passed.
While bedbug reports indicate minimal issues in recent years, with no infestations reported since 2020, the building has experienced various health and safety inspections, including a food poisoning incident in January 2025 and multiple heating system violations. The Department of Buildings issued three Class 1 violations in 2022 related to elevator safety and building maintenance, though these have since been resolved. The most recent documentation includes a permit for elevator work issued in August 2023, suggesting ongoing efforts to address the building's infrastructure needs. The building's management has generally responded to violations and complaints, with many issues being resolved through inspections and repairs, though some repetitive issues persist, particularly regarding heat and hot water systems.
