1575 Townsend Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452
The 6-story, 45-unit New Law Tenement at 1575 Townsend Avenue in Mount Eden, built in 1922 and currently owned by Salvatore Davalo, is experiencing multiple ongoing maintenance issues as of July 2025. Most notably, there are currently open HPD complaints from May 2025 regarding a window pane issue, unsanitary pest conditions, floor problems, and plumbing concerns.
The building has also experienced recurring heat and hot water problems between February and May 2025, with violations issued in some cases. Apartment 2 is facing significant maintenance challenges according to recent housing maintenance code violations from 2024, including water leak issues, pest infestations (mice), and multiple repair needs affecting the bathroom, kitchen, and flooring. The property has a documented history of pest problems, with recent bedbug reports showing one infested unit in 2024 and previous infestations in 2021 and 2022.
Rodent activity has been consistently documented in inspections throughout 2024 and 2025, though some inspections in 2023 showed passing results. Previous Department of Buildings (DOB) inspections from 2018-2021 revealed several serious violations related to electrical safety, plumbing work, and fire safety systems, including unpermitted work and exposed wiring issues, though these were ultimately resolved or dismissed. The building's historical complaint record shows repeated access issues for inspectors trying to evaluate various complaints, suggesting potential challenges with obtaining access for necessary repairs and inspections.
