1443 Bryant Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459

The three-unit residential building at 1443 Bryant Avenue in East Morrisania, owned by Andrea Bellony, has experienced several recurring issues over the past few years, most notably related to heat and hot water systems. Between 2021 and 2023, there were multiple heat/hot water complaints, including two reports of entire-building heat/hot water failures in February 2021 and November 2022, as well as an apartment-specific heat/hot water complaint in December 2021.

The building has also faced plumbing issues, with the most recent complaint regarding a sink basin received in August 2023, which HPD was unable to access to inspect. Violations recorded in 2023 included a self-closing door issue, an electrical outlet cover missing in Apartment 2, and hot water exceeding 130 degrees in Apartment 2, while earlier violations from 2019-2021 involved both plumbing and door-related issues in the ground floor apartment. On a more positive note, the building has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections between 2010 and 2022, with no violations noted during these inspections.

The property owner has regularly filed bedbug reports from 2020 through 2025, with all reports indicating zero infested dwelling units. While the building has had various maintenance issues requiring attention, most violations from both recent and earlier years have been closed out, though some recent heat and water-related complaints indicate potential ongoing system concerns. The property converted to Class A status in 1995 and has been subject to regular inspections and reporting requirements since that time.
