2438 Washington Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458
The five-story New Law tenement building at 2438 Washington Avenue in Belmont, owned by Ramon Santos, has experienced several significant maintenance and health issues throughout 2024-2025. The building, which contains 38 units and was constructed in 1915, has faced recurring problems with heating and cooling systems, including multiple heat/hot water complaints in early 2025, though one was resolved quickly. There have been persistent rodent issues, with the most recent inspections in 2025 showing compliance failures, and a mouse sighting reported in April 2025.
The property has also encountered multiple instances of access issues during inspections, particularly in February 2025, affecting complaints related to doors, windows, plumbing, and wall conditions. The building's 2024 inspection history reveals various violations, particularly affecting apartment 3E, which faced multiple issues including roach infestations, plumbing problems, defective smoke detectors, and mold concerns. Unit 4B had floor repair violations noted in October 2024.
While the building has maintained a clean bedbug record since 2019 with no reported infestations in the past five years, there is currently an active Department of Buildings violation from 2021 regarding energy efficiency score display requirements. The property has shown some inconsistency in addressing rodent control measures, as evidenced by multiple failed inspections in 2024 and 2025, though a December 2024 inspection did pass. The building's maintenance response has varied, with some complaints being closed due to lack of access for inspectors or because tenants did not follow up on initial contact attempts.
