2475 Arthur Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The three-story, two-family house at 2475 Arthur Avenue in Belmont, managed by Arthur Avenue East 189th LLC, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past several years. The building, constructed in 1931, has a documented history of heating system problems, with a 2019 HPD complaint about heat/hot water issues that could not be inspected due to lack of access. In April 2018, multiple violations were issued for Apartment 2, including problems with the south wall bathroom plaster, bathroom ceramic tile, and north wall kitchen surfaces, as well as a defective ceiling light fixture in the second-story public hall—though these violations were subsequently certified as resolved by April 2018.

The building underwent plumbing-related complications in early 2019, including a stop work order that was fully rescinded on February 27, 2019, along with the revocation of plumbing approvals due to a suspended master plumber's license, though these violations were ultimately dismissed. More recent building history shows a pattern of rodent inspections, with both passed and failed results between 2022 and 2025. While inspections have generally been successful in recent times, there were two instances of failed inspections for "Other Reasons" in 2022, and a rat activity report in March 2024.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all annual reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. The most recent rodent inspection in February 2025 resulted in a passing grade. Despite these maintenance challenges, the property has shown improvement in recent years, with no major violations reported since 2019 and consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements.
