1751 Topping Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

1751 Topping Avenue is a 9-unit, 3-story residential building in the Mount Hope neighborhood, constructed in 1997 and currently owned by Nancy Jimenez. The property has experienced recurrent heat and hot water issues, with three documented complaints in 2019 and more recently in November 2023, including one instance involving the entire building where inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

The building has also faced several maintenance challenges, particularly during 2022, when multiple violations were recorded including problems with doors/windows, walls, and safety equipment. Notably, Apartment 2 had several documented issues such as pest infestation (roaches), multiple broken doors, and lock mechanism problems during 2022 that resulted in open violations.

The building's safety systems have been inspected, with violations for self-closing doors in 2022, though a bedbug report for 2024 showed no infested units. While recent rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025 show consistent compliance with passing results, the history of maintenance complaints and heating system problems suggests ongoing challenges with building systems and resident comfort. The property has maintained regular inspections and reporting requirements, with the most recent bedbug report from 2024 showing zero infestation cases during the specified period.
