1530 Plimpton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452
1530 Plimpton Avenue is a 5-story, 40-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Louie Andris. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues, with the most recent concerns centered around pest control, as evidenced by two unsanitary pest condition complaints in December 2024 that could not be inspected due to access issues. The building has had multiple heat and hot water complaints between late 2023 and early 2024, affecting both individual apartments and common areas.
In October 2023, the building faced water-related issues, including heavy flow problems and plumbing concerns affecting sinks and bathtubs, which were classified as emergencies. The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) conducted inspections in April 2024 that resulted in several violations, particularly focused on Apartment B, including issues with peeling paint, defective plaster surfaces, and pest infestation. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of various infrastructure and maintenance challenges, including door/windoe issues, flooring problems, and multiple instances of paint/plaster violations. Significant safety concerns arose in early 2024 regarding roof access, with violations found for illegal fastenings on bulkhead doors.
The building's bedbug reporting history shows generally low infestation rates, with only two reported cases between 2018-2021. Recent rodent inspections in 2024 and 2025 passed successfully, continuing a pattern of generally positive rodent control outcomes since 2015. A Department of Buildings violation from 2022 regarding energy benchmarking requirements was dismissed after confirmation of compliance. The property has been proactive in addressing structural and safety issues, as evidenced by multiple permits issued in 2020-2021 for various maintenance work.
