1815 University Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453
1815 University Avenue is a 5-story, 26-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1922, currently owned by Salvatore Davola. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with the most concerning problems being water-related. As of August 2024, there are open violations in apartments 1A and 2C related to water leaks and corresponding ceiling damage, and similar issues persist in apartment 4E.
The building has a documented pattern of pest-related complaints, particularly regarding rodent issues, with the most recent rodent inspections in 2025 showing both passed and failed results. Between 2023-2024, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions, including pests, mold, and problems with doors/windows, though many of these complaints were closed without violations being issued. The building has significant historical maintenance issues, including plumbing and electrical concerns.
Environmental Control Board violations from 2019-2022 indicate problems with the chimney, gas meter room, and boiler system. Recent inspections have shown both progress and ongoing concerns: while there were no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years (2021-2024), the rodent inspections have shown mixed results. Notably, there are three active violations from 2023 regarding failure to file External Low-Pressure Inspection reports from 2018-2020, and multiple recent complaints about ceiling damage and water leaks suggest persistent infrastructure challenges. The building's management history shows periods of responsive maintenance, such as addressing pest inspections and some repair needs, but also reveals patterns of delayed response to recurring issues.
