Augrented Insights Report for 2546 Creston Avenue

2546 Creston Avenue is a 5-story, 11-unit residential building located in Fordham and owned by Ismael Soto. The century-old structure has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints documented between October 2023 and March 2024, representing ongoing concerns about building maintenance. The building has also been subject to several Housing Maintenance Code violations, including open violations from September 2023 related to fire retardant materials and wall conditions in the 4th story public hall, as well as more recent violations in 2023 regarding a water leak and hot water issues in apartment 3S, and pest infestations in apartment 1S.

The property has a notable history of rodent-related issues, particularly in 2022-2023, with several inspections indicating rat activity, though most recent inspections in 2024-2025 have shown passing results. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record for the past seven reporting periods (2018-2025), with no infestations recorded. An inspection in 2024 pertaining to illegal hotel rooms was conducted but resulted in insufficient information to proceed.

The owner failed to file a required Cycle 1 Technical Report in 2018, though this violation was later dismissed. Regular rodent inspections conducted throughout 2023-2025 show an improvement in pest management, with most recent inspections passing. In summary, while the building has made progress in pest control and rodent management in recent years, persistent issues with heat and hot water systems, along with certain structural and maintenance violations, continue to affect resident experience. The property has maintained a zero-tolerance policy for bedbugs and has shown recent improvements in rodent control, though notable maintenance challenges remain, particularly regarding heating systems.
