2358 Crotona Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

2358 Crotona Avenue, a 3-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Aswin Singiri, is experiencing significant maintenance challenges as of 2025. The property has had multiple recent complaints and violations related to critical systems and safety features, including unresolved issues with mold, heating, and water supply problems reported through multiple 311 service requests in April 2025.

Of particular concern are safety-related complaints regarding smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, which HPD was unable to inspect during their visits, along with structural issues involving stairs that resulted in violations being issued. The building has also faced persistent pests problems, with multiple complaints filed between March and April 2025, though recent bedbug reports from 2025 show no infested units. The property has a record of illegal conversions and safety violations, including a 2024 ECB violation regarding obstructed fire escape access with a penalty imposed, and multiple complaints about insufficient egress in late 2024.

While the bedbug issue appears to be under control with consistent reporting showing zero infested units since 2019, the building has experienced intermittent rodent activity according to inspections throughout 2024 and 2025, with some failures to meet compliance in initial inspections. The owner has maintained regular bedbug reporting as required, with the most recent filings showing no infestations. The building's maintenance history shows previous issues with heat and hot water systems, though some violations from 2023-2024 were dismissed upon inspection.
