2371 Hughes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458
The 9-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 2371 Hughes Avenue in the Belmont neighborhood, built in 1909 and owned by Mitchell Slavuter, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, the building has faced recurring heat and hot water problems in early 2024, with emergency complaints filed on January 25 and 29, suggesting ongoing temperature control challenges. A pattern of water-related issues has emerged, with active Housing Maintenance Code violations as of September 2024 regarding water leak problems in Apartment 4, along with multiple plumbing-related complaints in late 2023.
The building has also faced safety concerns, with violations related to missing window guards, non-functioning smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors in September 2024. Additional structural and maintenance issues have been documented, including problems with doors, windows, flooring, ceilings, and lighting from 2022 through 2023. Recent inspections have revealed rat activity in and around the building, with multiple bait applications recorded between 2023 and 2025, though three inspections in 2024 and 2025 have shown either compliance or passed results.
The Department of Buildings has documented various violations requiring attention to the building's envelope, including concerns about the brick parapet wall, sidewalk shed, and roof access doors between 2023 and 2024, though some of these violations were subsequently dismissed or resolved. The building's history includes periodic bedbug infestations, with the most recent reports from 2023-2024 showing zero affected units. While some violations have been resolved through inspections and corrections, multiple open violations as of September 2024 indicate ongoing maintenance challenges requiring monitoring.
