181 West Tremont Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453

181 West Tremont Avenue is a 5-story, 38-unit residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Kenneth Yustman. The building has experienced several infrastructure challenges in recent years, most notably with heating and hot water systems, which have shown recurring issues throughout 2021 and 2022, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

Multiple complaints regarding cooking gas supply were filed between February and May 2022, leading to HPD inspections and violations. More recently, in May 2024, the building faced multiple maintenance issues including plumbing, flooring problems, and mold concerns, all of which were categorized as emergencies under the Housing Maintenance Code. The property has a history of pest control challenges, particularly in 2021 when a significant infestation of mice and roaches was documented in apartment 3F, though this issue was addressed by September 2021.

Multiple maintenance violations have been recorded, including issues with window guards, electrical wiring, and floor conditions in apartment 3F. Despite these challenges, the building's management has consistently filed bedbug reports showing zero infestation cases since 2019, and recent rodent inspections conducted in 2023, 2024, and 2025 have all passed successfully. The building has undergone regular inspections and reporting requirements, including annual bedbug reports and rodent control measures, demonstrating compliance with city regulations in recent years.
