1487 Teller Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457
The five-story New Law Tenement building at 1487 Teller Avenue, owned by Josh Hubi, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent months, particularly regarding building-wide heat and hot water issues. Between December 2024 and January 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints about inadequate heat and hot water affecting the entire building, with several of these complaints requiring HPD intervention. The building has also faced ongoing pest control issues, with multiple violations issued in December 2024 regarding both rodent and cockroach infestations in various units (notably apartments 1C and 4D), along with other maintenance concerns such as problems with a bathroom cabinet, mold in bathroom areas, and various building systems needing attention.
The property has documented both active and previously addressed violations that warrant attention. Currently, there are open Class A and Class C violations related to building safety and maintenance, including issues with a fire escape component and various encumbrances in common areas. Historical records show a pattern of heat and maintenance-related complaints, with multiple violations for failing to maintain basic services.
While the building's bedbug reporting history shows no infestations from 2018 through 2024, recent rodent inspections between 2023 and 2025 indicate persistent rat activity. Additionally, there are two active Department of Buildings violations related to external pressure inspection filing and energy efficiency score display requirements. An April 2025 complaint regarding building shaking/vibrating/structural stability was recorded and subsequently served as an Oath Violation.
