1475 Jesup Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452

The 63-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement at 1475 Jesup Avenue in Mount Eden, built in 1926 and currently owned by Jesup At West 172nd Realty Corp, has experienced persistent maintenance issues throughout 2024-2025. The building has ongoing violations related to pest control, with multiple extermination attempts documented between April and May 2025, along with recurring mold problems. Heating and hot water issues were reported in March 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

There are also significant safety concerns, including an open violation from September 2024 regarding broken glass panes at the building entrance, as well as security issues related to defective doors and locks. Apartment 2H has documented violations for rodent and insect infestations, as well as non-functional smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. The building's management has not consistently responded to inspections, as evidenced by several instances in 2025 where HPD was unable to gain access to conduct necessary evaluations.

Compliance inspections for rodent activity have shown mixed results, with multiple failures documented throughout 2024-2025. The property shows historical neglect in safety compliance, with ten active violations related to energy efficiency reporting between 2020 and 2023, including failures to submit required benchmarking reports and inspection documentation. While no bedbug infestations have been reported in the past year, the overall pattern of pest-related issues suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and tenant comfort. The building's age and classification as a New Law Tenement underscore the importance of proper maintenance to meet current housing standards, though recent violations indicate ongoing challenges in this regard.
