2037 Belmont Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

2037 Belmont Avenue is a 4-story, 17-unit pre-war tenement building constructed in 1909, currently owned by Heng Ly and located in the Tremont neighborhood. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, most notably in March 2025, when multiple HPD inspections resulted in violations related to plumbing (bathtubs/showers and sinks), door frames, flooring, unsanitary conditions (including pests and mold), and buzzer/intercom systems. The violations were officially noted as requiring correction, though specific compliance dates were not provided in the records.

Earlier, in 2024-2025, the building underwent various repairs including issues with water leaks, electrical outlets, and bathrooms. Notable historical violations include evidence of roach infestation and issues with carbon monoxide detectors in 2023, as well as several Class B and C violations in Apartment 2 concerning water leaks, electrical problems, and door issues. The building's recent maintenance history shows regular rodent inspections between 2022-2025, with most passing but noting rat activity in 2022.

While the property has had consistent bedbug reporting forms submitted between 2019-2024, all reports indicate zero affected units, suggesting effective management of this particular pest. The Department of Buildings records show one permit issued in 2019 for exterior work, though no significant violations or complaints related to illegal commercial use or egress issues were found in recent inspections. The building's 311 service requests and housing maintenance code complaints from 2025 highlight ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with plumbing, sanitation, and security systems, while showing the property management's responsiveness to some issues through resulting inspections and repairs.
