Jesup Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452

This five-story, 10-unit residential building on Jesup Avenue in Mount Eden, owned by Mayer Kaufman, was completed in 2022 and has experienced several notable events since its construction. Most recently, in mid-2025, the building faced multiple housing maintenance issues reported simultaneously, including problems with ceilings, ventilation systems, toilet plumbing, and heavy water leaks, all categorized as either emergency or non-emergency maintenance needs.

In late 2024, there were also complaints regarding door issues and heat/hot water problems, though an HPD inspection of the latter was unable to identify any housing law violations. Prior to these recent maintenance concerns, the building underwent a period of significant construction-related scrutiny during its early months of operation. Multiple complaints about work conducted contrary to approved plans were recorded between May and September 2022, resulting in at least one building violation for failure to adhere to a stop work order.

However, inspections conducted during this period generally resulted in stop work orders being rescinded, with no violations being warranted upon inspection in subsequent complaints. The property has maintained a clean record regarding pest issues, with no reported bedbug infestations in its last two annual reporting periods (2023-2024 and 2024-2025), showing zero infested units and successful eradication of any cases. The building's overall history suggests a pattern of addressing maintenance issues, though the concentration of recent complaints in 2025 indicates a period requiring attentive management of building systems and infrastructure.
