1941 Vyse Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460

1941 Vyse Avenue is a 6-story, 46-unit Class A residential building constructed in 2002, currently owned by Valerie Torres. The building has experienced recurring issues with heating and hot water systems, particularly evident in March 2025 when both entire building and apartment-specific complaints were logged and closed, suggesting ongoing temperature maintenance concerns. The property has also faced multiple challenges regarding floors and stairs, with at least seven non-emergency complaints between late 2024 and early 2025 indicating persistent accessibility or safety issues that HPD inspectors struggled to access, and where violations appear to have been issued in some cases.

An open Class C violation from September 2024 remains active regarding roach infestation in apartment 4G. The building has seen various maintenance issues over recent years, including a cluster of complaints in 2024-2025 about unauthorized smoking in smoke-free areas, and several open violations from September 2024 related to maintenance and safety compliance. These include issues with vinyl tile flooring in apartments 4B and 4G, bathroom wall conditions, and self-closing doors at the bulkhead.

The property has experienced mechanical system concerns, particularly regarding elevator service, with multiple complaints recorded between 2020-2023, though inspections typically found no violations. While the building has maintained a significant number of successful rodent inspections, with the most recent passing inspection in January 2025, there are active violations regarding the failure to file required external low-pressure and energy benchmarking inspections for multiple years, representing ongoing compliance issues. Notably, the building has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations on its annual filings since 2021, though a rat activity incident was documented in December 2020.
