1529 Vyse Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460

The three-story, nine-unit tenement at 1529 Vyse Avenue in East Morrisania, owned by Eli Fisher, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues since 2022. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints, with four emergency reports in 2024-2025 and at least two similar incidents in late 2022. Water-related problems are also evident, with multiple leaks documented between 2022 and 2024, including one classified as heavy flow in December 2022.

Apartment 3 on the third floor emerged as particularly problematic, with violations noted in December 2022 for various issues including pest infestation (roaches), defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and hot water exceeding 130 degrees. Recent activity shows ongoing maintenance challenges, with three separate complaints in late December 2024 regarding heat/hot water issues, water leaks, and door problems. In 2024, there were also complaints about mold, plumbing issues in the bathtub/shower, and problems with the building's intercom system.

While the building passed recent rodent inspections (May 2024), there have been multiple documented instances of rodent activity between 2017 and 2022. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements in 2025, with no infected units reported. Two open violations remain from December 2022 regarding a blocked scuttle ladder access and a door repair requirement for Apartment 3, though most historical violations have been addressed and closed. The building's management has generally responded to HPD inspections, with most recent complaints being resolved or requiring further action according to housing laws.
