2027 Hughes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

2027 Hughes Avenue is an 8-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926, currently owned by New Walton Avenue Hdfc. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with four documented complaints in the past six years (2019, 2020, 2022, and most recently February 2023) regarding these essential services affecting the entire building. These incidents were categorized as emergencies, though HPD inspections typically found that the issues had been resolved by the time of their visit.

The building has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations, including a missing smoke detector in Apartment 5 (2022) and a broken kitchen cabinet in Apartment 6 (2019), though past violations related to the third-floor walls were resolved. Notably, a complaint regarding a defective boiler in December 2020 was investigated but found unsubstantiated. On a positive note, the building has maintained a clean record concerning pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years (2019-2024) according to the mandatory Bedbug Reporting system.

Recent rodent inspections (2022-2025) have all passed, indicating effective pest management. The property has undergone various maintenance and improvement work, as evidenced by multiple permits issued between 2018-2019, though specific details of the work performed were not provided in the records. While the recurring heating issues are concerning, the building's overall maintenance of basic standards, including successful pest control measures, is noteworthy.
