1418 Prospect Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459
The 5-story, 20-unit residential building at 1418 Prospect Avenue in Morrisania, owned by Joseph Zitolo, has exhibited recurring maintenance and safety issues since 2011. Most notably, there have been multiple heating and hot water system failures in recent years, with emergency complaints recorded for the entire building in May 2024 and December 2022, along with several other related complaints. In the past year, there have been additional concerns including unsanitary conditions related to pests (July 2024) and a refrigerator issue (August 2024).
The building has also experienced some structural and safety concerns, including a broken window guard violation in December 2022, though no related violations were issued following an HPD inspection. The property has a history of addressing various maintenance issues, with most complaints being closed after inspections or tenant verification of corrections. Notable past violations include multiple paint and plaster problems in different units (including apartments 2A and 3A), a water leak issue in January 2022, and infrequent bedbug activity, with one infestation reported and eradicated in 2024.
Regular rodent inspections have mostly passed since 2016, though there were notable rat activity reports in 2011-2012, and the most recent rodent inspection in July 2022 also passed. The building, constructed in 1904, has shown improvements in some areas while recurring heating system failures and periodic maintenance issues suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure. The most recent bedbug report from December 2024 indicates one unit was infested and subsequently treated, appearing to have been successfully eradicated.
