1645 Grand Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453
1645 Grand Avenue is a 5-story, 46-unit residential building located in the Morris Heights neighborhood, owned by Luis Fermin and constructed in 1924. The property has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent months, with multiple 311 service requests in May 2025 regarding heat/hot water, general maintenance of building systems, and multiple paint/plaster issues affecting both walls and ceilings.
Of particular concern are several safety-related complaints from May 2025 that HPD was unable to inspect, including issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, window guards, and unsanitary conditions related to pests and mold. The building's violation history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing issues, including a significant water leak and plumbing problem in Apartment 3BN noted in late 2024 that remains open as of 2025, and past violations regarding unauthorized apartment modifications. During 2022-2023, there were serious construction-related concerns, including structural monitoring and a partial vacate order due to building stability issues.
Multiple violations were issued in 2023 regarding improper construction practices, though these were subsequently resolved. The building's maintenance record shows regular rodent inspections, with recent inspections in 2024-2025 passing, though there were instances of rat activity noted in 2019-2020. While the building has maintained a zero infestation record for bedbugs over the past five years, the recent cluster of maintenance issues, particularly related to building systems and safety features, suggests ongoing challenges with property upkeep and maintenance response procedures.
