1690 Bryant Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460
The 6-story, 48-unit building at 1690 Bryant Avenue in East Morrisania, owned by Derrick Lovett, has had several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, particularly concerning heating systems and elevator functionality. Most notably, there was a troubling pattern of heat and hot water complaints in late 2024, with seven separate incidents reported between November 24 and December 3, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. These complaints were marked as emergency cases and required multiple follow-ups before being resolved.
More recently, in 2025, there have been ongoing issues with a faulty refrigerator (closed June 2025) and an open pest (unsanitary condition) complaint from April 2025. The building has a documented history of elevator-related problems, with multiple complaints spanning from 2019 through 2024, including Oath Violations served in 2019, 2020, and 2024 regarding the "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" issue. The most recent elevator maintenance violation from December 2024 noted problems with the inoperative car phone, worn gibs, and maintenance tags. Plumbing issues have also been persistent, particularly affecting apartment 4E in 2024, with documented problems including a defective sink connection, leaky faucet, and refrigerator door gasket.
While there have been some historical pest control issues, including a roach infestation in apartment 6A (2022) and occasional mosquito problems (most recently in 2024), the building currently shows no bedbug infestations according to the most recent reports from 2025 and 2024. The property has generally passed rodent inspections from 2015-2022, with only two failures noted in 2010. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of recurring issues, particularly regarding the heating system, elevator service, and plumbing, with many complaints requiring multiple follow-ups before resolution. The most recent heating system problems in 2024-2025 and open pest complaint in 2025 are particularly noteworthy, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges.
