1010 East Tremont Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460

1010 East Tremont Avenue is a 5-story, 30-unit New Law Tenement building located in the West Farms neighborhood, built in 1918 and currently owned by Sol Zalman. The building has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent months, with multiple complaints and violations reported through HPD in 2025, including problems with heat/hot water, unsanitary conditions (pests), and various maintenance issues affecting walls, doors, floors, and ceilings.

Notably, there are current open violations related to pest infestations, and between March-April 2025, multiple violations were issued that require correction by the property owner. The building has a documented history of maintenance challenges, including recurring issues with mold, water damage, and various structural problems. The property underwent significant inspection activity in late 2024, particularly focusing on Apartment C2, which was found to have multiple violations requiring correction, including mold, carbon monoxide detector issues, and problems with doors and plastered surfaces.

Historical data shows a pattern of pest control issues, with the most recent rodent inspection in February 2025 passing, though there were multiple reports of rat activity in late 2017. The building's systems have also faced scrutiny, with three complaints recorded between 2018-2022 regarding boiler issues and improper drainage, though these complaints were ultimately closed with no violations found or the inspector unable to gain access. While bedbug reports over the past five years show no active infestations, the building's maintenance history suggests ongoing attention is required to address recurring issues.
