1151 Longfellow Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459
The 2-story, 3-unit converted old law tenement at 1151 Longfellow Avenue in Longwood, owned by Romuald Mirville and built in 1920, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues over the past two years, with particularly significant problems emerging in early 2025. Most recently, there are two open plumbing complaints related to bathtub/shower issues as of March 2025, and a closed mold violation from March 2025.
The building has recorded multiple plumbing and water-related issues, including sink/basin problems, slow water leaks, and heating/hot water complaints throughout 2024. Notably, the property has open violations from April 2024 affecting apartment 2R, including issues with a kitchen sink waste pipe, ceiling plaster/paint conditions, and various window problems creating safety concerns due to improper spring balance mechanisms. The building's recent history shows repeated issues with mold (April 2024, March 2025), plumbing problems (including multiple complaints about bathtubs/showers), and various general maintenance concerns.
There have been multiple instances where HPD inspectors were unable to gain access to conduct inspections, particularly regarding water leaks and mailbox issues in September 2024. Additionally, the property has experienced recurring rodent activity, with inspections in 2015-2017 showing various compliance issues related to rat activity, though two passed inspections in 2016 and 2018 suggest some improvements in pest control measures. The consistent pattern of maintenance issues, particularly the recent plumbing complaints and open violations affecting unit 2R, indicates ongoing challenges with building upkeep and maintenance responsiveness.
