1028 Grote Street, Bronx, NY 10460

1028 Grote Street is a three-story, two-unit residential building located in the Belmont neighborhood, owned by Arman Kohanbash and constructed in 1901. The building has experienced recurring water-related issues, with four documented water leak complaints in 2025 and 2024, three of which were classified as emergency situations. Additionally, there have been multiple heating and hot water complaints affecting the entire building, including three emergencies in 2024 and a similar complaint in October 2023 where inspectors were unable to gain access for verification.

The property has maintained active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no infestation cases in the past three reporting periods (2023-2025), though there were three eradicated units noted in 2021-2022 and 2019-2020. Recent inspections indicate rat activity was recorded in December 2022, but seven subsequent rodent inspections from 2023 to 2025 have all passed. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various issues, including ceiling plaster work and electrical concerns in 2021, as well as an unsanitary condition related to garbage/recycling storage.

While many complaints have been promptly addressed, several have resulted in "no violations issued" determinations when inspectors were unable to access affected units. The property maintains an active inspection history, with the last rodent inspection in June 2025 passing successfully. All documented bedbug violations from 2021-2022 have been resolved through compliant reporting, and there are no current violations on record. The building's water system continues to be a recurring maintenance focus, with multiple leak complaints spanning from 2024 to 2025, representing the most significant ongoing maintenance challenge based on recent patterns.
