2381 Lorillard Place, Bronx, NY 10458

The 7-unit residential building at 2381 Lorillard Place in Belmont, owned by Aviram Chen, has experienced recurring maintenance issues since its construction in 2019, with the most pressing concerns being heat/hot water problems and water-related issues. Most recently, in November 2023, a heat/hot water complaint was filed but went uninspected due to access issues. The building has shown persistent heating system problems, with similar complaints in December 2022 and November 2021, though some of these complaints were not able to be inspected due to access issues, and one complaint in 2021 resulted in no violations.

Other notable issues include a mold complaint in May 2023 (investigated with no violations found), a heavy water leak and plumbing problems in July 2022 (both went uninspected), and multiple complaints regarding cooking gas in 2021, with one resulting in verification of correction. The building's construction phase (2019) was marked by several code violations related to construction safety and documentation, including inadequate site safety plans and failure to maintain proper safety equipment measures, resulting in penalties totaling over $16,000. An inspection in March 2020 revealed multiple safety-related violations, including problems with the scaffold and inadequate documentation, though all were ultimately resolved.

The building has maintained consistent bedbug reporting compliance since 2022, with no infestations reported. Recent rodent inspections in 2024 showed some rat activity, particularly in early 2024, but the most recent inspections in 2025 showed passed results. The property has demonstrated periodic maintenance challenges, particularly with heating systems and water-related issues, while actively maintaining compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and addressing construction-related violations from its initial phase.
