2494 Bathgate Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The two-family residential property at 2494 Bathgate Avenue in the Belmont neighborhood, owned by Jean Colangelo, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years, with a particular pattern of heating system problems. Most recently, in April 2023, there was an emergency heat/hot water complaint affecting the entire building, which was resolved within three days through HPD intervention.

Prior to this, there were two heat/hot water incidents in November 2022 - one affecting the entire building and another specific to an apartment - both of which were resolved quickly. The building faced additional challenges in early 2022, including a safety concern regarding smoke detectors and an unsanitary condition related to pests; however, no violations were issued for either issue following HPD inspections.

The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with official reports from 2019-2022 showing no infested dwelling units, though reports were filed regularly as per the required protocol. A Department of Buildings complaint from March 2019 regarding professional certification compliance auditing was closed in October 2020, though the inspector reportedly could not gain access on the second final attempt. While the building has had some recurring heating system issues that affect resident comfort, particularly during the winter months, it is worth noting that all reported problems were addressed and closed through appropriate channels, with no active violations currently on record as of October 2023.
