1774 Eastburn Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457
1774 Eastburn Avenue is a 6-story, 41-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Joseph Gershenovest. The property has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years, with the most pressing issues emerging in 2025, including multiple HPD violations related to electrical problems, water leaks, unsanitary conditions (mold), and safety concerns about the fire escape. The building has persistent plumbing issues as evidenced by several water leak complaints and violations regarding steam pipe/riser problems in 2025.
The building's history shows recurring maintenance issues dating back several years, including serious concerns about lead paint hazards in apartment 5A (violations issued in December 2024), problems with flooring, walls, and various fixtures. A significant structural issue was noted in 2021 regarding a collapsing retaining wall that compromised egress for approximately 19 apartments, leading to multiple ECB violations. The boiler system has also been problematic, with multiple complaints and violations recorded in early 2022, including dangerous CO readings.
Additionally, there have been ongoing rodent activity concerns, with multiple inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing rat activity as a persistent problem. More recent service requests and violations from 2025 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, including issues with lighting, flooring, water leaks, mold, and fire escape safety. The building has shown some improvement in bedbug management, with only one infested unit reported in the 2022-2023 period, though rodent inspections have revealed consistent activity. The most recent 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code violations suggest that while some issues are being addressed through inspections and citations, there remains a pattern of unresolved maintenance challenges that affect resident quality of life.
