1768 Eastburn Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

The 6-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 1768 Eastburn Avenue, built in 1930 and currently owned by 1768 Eastburn Ave. LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with particular attention needed to mold, sanitation, and water-related problems.

Most notably, the building has open violations related to bedbug report filings (2023 and 2024), and multiple open violations from June 2022 affecting Apartment 3, including issues with mold (both visible and infestation), water leaks, flooring defects, and bathroom tile repairs. The property has a history of electrical problems, as evidenced by multiple lighting complaints in 2021 and 2022, some of which were classified as emergencies. The building has also faced infrastructure challenges, including a total loss of heat and hot water reported in November 2021 (though this was resolved shortly thereafter), and water-related issues indicated by multiple service requests in June 2022.

While recent rodent inspections from 2023-2025 have generally resulted in passing grades, there was one noted instance of rat activity in August 2023. The property has several outstanding Department of Buildings violations related to untimely filing of inspection reports (for 2017, 2018, and 2022 external low pressure inspections), and an ECB violation from 2018 regarding hot water system maintenance requirements that received a penalty. Regular 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints from 2022 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, though it's worth noting that several complaints were either investigated with no violations found, or were closed after inspection.
