1422 Nelson Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452
The building at 1422 Nelson Avenue is a 6-story, 72-unit New Law Tenement constructed in 1928, currently owned by Mark Neiman. In recent months (2025), the property has experienced several notable issues, including unsanitary conditions with pests (May 2025), ongoing plumbing problems with toilets (May 2025), and door-related issues (May 2025). A significant concern arose in May 2025 when multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water (affecting both individual apartments and the entire building) were filed, though some were subsequently closed after system restoration was confirmed.
The building has a history of elevator-related problems, with multiple complaints regarding single device operation and no alternate service being recorded between 2020-2024, though inspections typically found no violations. The property underwent a December 2024 inspection that revealed several violations requiring attention, including issues with door locks, electrical wiring, and safety systems in apartments 1E and 6E. These violations, which were certified for correction in early 2025, involved problems with emergency access, self-closing doors, electrical outlets, and safety equipment.
Recent rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with reports of rat activity in 2024 and early 2025, though some inspections resulted in passing grades. The building's maintenance record shows regular bedbug reporting for the past five years, all indicating zero infested units. The property has faced multiple environmental control board violations, including an elevator maintenance issue (2024) and a 2020 violation regarding door lock monitoring. Recent housing maintenance code violations have shown ongoing concerns with building systems and safety equipment, though many older violations have been resolved through proper certification processes.
