1050 Hoe Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459

1050 Hoe Avenue is a 5-story, 21-unit residential building constructed in 1909, currently owned by 360 Preservation LLC. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant problems occurring in early 2025, including multiple reports of water leaks, mold, and ventilation system problems. Between January and March 2025 alone, there were at least six documented complaints regarding water leaks (including damp spots and heavy flow), three complaints about mold (some designated as unsanitary conditions), and two complaints about ventilation system issues, though inspections were either incomplete or could not be conducted in several cases.

Additionally, there was a complaint in January 2025 regarding ceiling paint/plaster issues that resulted in violations being issued. The building has faced several other concerning maintenance issues over the past two years. In 2024, there were documented cases of mice infestation in apartment 1B, and multiple violations related to lead paint hazard compliance were identified in late 2023.

Previous inspections revealed safety concerns, including a broken window pane at the intermediate landing between the first and second stories. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with multiple inspections in 2025 showing rat activity and bait application. While there was one recorded instance of bedbug infestation in 2022-2023, subsequent reports in 2023-2024 showed no infestations. The building's age and history as a New Law Tenement are evident through these ongoing maintenance challenges, which have persisted despite various inspections and violation notices.
