1299 Clay Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
1299 Clay Avenue is a two-family house located in Claremont Village, built in 1901 and currently owned by Lucy Burgos. The building has experienced persistent maintenance challenges over recent years, particularly between 2019-2020, when multiple water-related issues were documented, including heavy flow water leaks, damp spots, and roofing problems that resulted in violations.
During this period, there were also significant heating system concerns, with emergency complaints filed regarding both building-wide and apartment-specific heat/hot water problems, including a documented violation in December 2019 for inadequate hot water supply to Apartment 2. Additionally, the property faced infrastructure and safety issues such as roofing violations and concerns about egress from fire escapes in 2019, along with an infestation problem that required remediation.
More recently, the building's mechanical systems have continued to present challenges, with a currently active Environmental Control Board violation (as of June 2020) related to boiler safety requirements, including missing low water cutoff systems and ventilation issues. The most significant recent focus has been on rodent control, with multiple inspections between 2022-2025 showing a mix of compliance and non-compliance results. The most recent rodent inspection in May 2025 passed, but prior inspections throughout 2023 and 2024 show varying degrees of rodent activity and inspection failures for "Other Reasons." The building's recent history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding building systems and pest control, though there have been some improvements in compliance with recent inspections.
