110 East 177th Street, Bronx, NY 10453

The 55-unit, 6-story building at 110 East 177th Street in Mount Hope, owned by Diane Revtrust and constructed in 1941, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with particularly concerning problems emerging in 2025. Most notably, there were multiple emergency-level issues reported in June 2025, including mold, radiator problems, ceiling defects, and flooring issues, with multiple violations issued that required owner correction. The building has documented persistent rat activity, with inspections showing rat activity as recently as June 2025, and the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene's Rat Portal referenced in recent complaints.

The property has also faced systemic maintenance challenges, including problems with the elevator system (resulting in Class 1 violations and penalties in 2024-2025), plumbing issues, and unsanitary conditions. A December 2024 inspection revealed multiple violations in apartment 1C, including water leaks, flooring issues, door problems, and a documented mouse infestation. The building's boiler and elevator systems have been the subject of multiple complaints and inspections throughout 2023-2025, with some resulting in violations and penalties.

The property has maintained a record of bedbug-free status across multiple reporting periods from 2019 to 2024, with no infested or re-infested units reported. Additionally, there are ongoing concerns about a retaining wall documented in 2022, which is reported to be crumbling, bulging, and leaning, with active violations still pending resolution. The building's management has received various violation notices over the years, some of which have been resolved while others remain active or were dismissed. Recent inspections have shown inconsistent maintenance of basic building systems, with multiple instances of failed rodent inspections and sanitation violations.
