1706 Nelson Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453
1706 Nelson Avenue is a five-story, 33-unit New Law Tenement building located in Morris Heights, built in 1917 and currently owned by Michael Mangan. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concern being a rodent infestation reported in May 2025, which resulted in HPD violations. There was a notable cluster of heat and hot water issues in December 2024, with multiple emergency complaints filed and one instance where HPD could not gain access to conduct an inspection.
The building has undergone several safety-related inspections and repairs, including work on fire escapes, door/window issues, and a significant number of repairs in Apartment 1B documented in September 2024, which included electrical, plumbing, plaster, and window-related violations. The property has a mixed history of bedbug infestations, with two confirmed cases in 2021-2022, though more recent reports from 2022-2024 show no new infestations. The building's records show consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections between 2014 and 2025.
However, there are currently two active violations from 2024 and 2025 regarding elevator service and external low-pressure inspection filing that require attention. Historical records indicate a pattern of prompt resolution of maintenance issues, though recent inspections suggest some ongoing concerns with building systems and safety infrastructure, including an open complaint about elevator service from June 2025. The building's maintenance pattern shows regular responses to violations, with many issues being addressed within reasonable timeframes, though the recent rodent infestation suggests potential ongoing pest control challenges.
