110 Mt Hope Place, Bronx, NY 10453

The 6-story, 54-unit building at 110 Mt Hope Place, constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Jose Sano, has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. As of summer 2025, there are multiple open complaints with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including reports of unsanitary conditions (pests), water leaks, and various maintenance issues affecting walls, floors, plumbing, and windows.

In early 2024, substantial violations were documented in Apartment 6A, including mold, window, heating, and hot water problems, most of which were subsequently closed after repairs. The building's elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints between 2022-2024 about service outages and safety issues, though inspections often found no violations. Recent rodent inspections indicate ongoing pest control challenges, with numerous inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing "rat activity" and other compliance failures.

Environmental Control Board violations in late 2024 noted problems with building walls and fire escape passageways, while the building has active Department of Buildings violations related to benchmarking and inspection reporting requirements. Despite these issues, the building has maintained a record of no documented bedbug infestations over the past several years. The property has received various emergency and non-emergency violations in recent years, including issues with self-closing doors, plumbing fixtures, and safety equipment, suggesting ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance with housing codes.
