89 West Tremont Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453

89 West Tremont Avenue is a 7-story, 80-unit residential building constructed in 2003 and currently owned by Cynthia Adams. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in early 2025, with complaints filed for both apartment-specific and entire-building problems, though inspections determined that some conditions did not violate housing laws.

A concerning pattern of pest-related issues was documented between December 2024 and early 2025, with multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions and pests, particularly involving mice and roaches in various apartments including 2G, 2J, 3N, 4K, 5G, 6G, and 7C, most of which remain open violations. The building has also faced significant elevator-related problems, with multiple complaints about devices on the property throughout 2024, including active complaints from December 2024 and January 2025. Notably, there are active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations from 2023-2024 regarding elevator service and low pressure inspection filings, with penalties totaling $10,250.

Recent inspections have shown the building is passing rodent inspections as of July 2025, though there was documented rat activity in October 2016. The property has had consistent issues with regard to safety and maintenance, including concerns about carbon monoxide detectors (December 2024) and various maintenance violations documented through Housing Maintenance Code complaints. While the building has maintained good results on most rodent inspections since 2016 and shows some improvements in specific maintenance areas, the recurring nature of elevator problems and recent pest issues suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and resident comfort.
