1490 Crotona Park East, Bronx, NY 10460
The 39-unit, 6-story building at 1490 Crotona Park East, constructed in 1931, has experienced recurring issues with heating and hot water systems, particularly in early 2025, when four separate complaints were filed within January alone. These followed a pattern established in previous years, including multiple heat-related complaints in 2023 and 2024.
The building has also faced several maintenance challenges, most notably in Apartment A5, where violations were documented in 2024 for missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, leaky bathroom faucets, and mold conditions in the bathroom. Both A5 and D5 had missing safety devices documented in August 2024 inspections, though these were certified as corrected by October 2024.
The property has shown some structural concerns, with Department of Buildings violations issued in 2024 citing damage to window sills and spalling issues on multiple building exposures, though these were not marked as resolved as of the latest inspection dates. While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years (with all annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero cases), and passed rodent inspections consistently from 2016 through 2022, there were periods of pest-related complaints in 2024. The building's management has faced scrutiny for not filing required benchmarking reports for energy use, with violations noted in 2024, indicating possible administrative oversights in building maintenance requirements.
