1560 Selwyn Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

1560 Selwyn Avenue is a 6-story, 64-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Martin Meyer. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues throughout 2025, with multiple reports of water leaks, unsanitary conditions involving pests and mold, and heat/hot water problems.

Notably, three separate inspections in June 2025 resulted in violations for unsanitary conditions related to pests and mold, though some water leak complaints were resolved without violations. The building faced significant issues in late 2024/early 2025, including violations for emergency water supply problems and power outages in June 2025, and previous heat-related complaints in March and April 2025. The building underwent thorough inspections in late 2024, with violations identified in apartment 6B including defective window guards, leaky faucets, plumbing issues, and various repairs needed, while apartment 3K had issues with a leaky flush pipe connection, damaged bathtub, and radiator valve problems.

Elevator maintenance has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints about single-device service dating back to 2018, and an active complaint regarding elevator service was filed in December 2024. The property has maintained a clean record in terms of bedbug infestations, with most recent reports showing zero infested units, and while rodent inspections typically passed, there were two failures noted in 2022 and 2023. The building's facade maintenance has also been monitored through multiple DOB violations requiring exterior wall examinations, though some of these were later dismissed.
