1520 Grand Concourse, Bronx, NY 10457

The 5-story, 15-unit building at 1520 Grand Concourse in Claremont Village, owned by Sean Nasab, has experienced numerous maintenance challenges in recent years, particularly in 2025. The most pressing current issues involve plumbing systems, with violations issued in April 2025 concerning steam pipes/risers and bathtub/shower facilities. There are also ongoing concerns about window frames, wall conditions, and mold reported in multiple complaints throughout 2025.

Earlier in 2025, there were safety-related complaints regarding carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and broken window guards, though HPD was often unable to complete inspections. The building has open violations from 2024 related to lead-based paint hazard control requirements, as well as issues with carbon monoxide detectors, paint conditions, and plumbing facilities in apartment 1A. The building's recent history shows a pattern of plumbing, safety, and maintenance issues. For instance, in 2024, multiple violations were documented regarding apartment 1A's bathroom fixtures, including problems with the water closet, bathtub, and wall paint.

The property also has an active Department of Buildings violation regarding the failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection. Rodent activity has been consistently documented in recent inspections, with the most recent report from June 2025 indicating rat activity. While the building has maintained a pest-free record regarding bedbugs over the past several reporting periods, the combination of plumbing issues, safety concerns, and rodent activity suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The property has experienced various inspection access issues, with multiple complaints being closed due to inspectors being unable to gain entry to the affected areas.
