2101 Creston Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453
2101 Creston Avenue is a 6-story, 52-unit residential building constructed in 1927, currently owned by Nuccio Ragusa. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over the past year, with multiple complaints made to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) between January and April 2025, some of which resulted in violations. Recent inspections in April 2025 identified several maintenance issues including mold, slow water leaks, and problems with windows, doors, electrical outlets, and flooring.
The building has a documented history of fire safety concerns, with violations in 2023 related to self-closing doors and gates on the 5th and 6th stories. Compliance inspections conducted in 2024 under Local Law 188/17 showed no violations, though there were earlier concerns about egress and safety net conditions in April 2024. The property has undergone various inspections and maintenance requirements in recent years, including rodent inspections which showed occasional rat activity in 2024.
Electrical work conducted in November 2023 resulted in two violations with significant penalties for unauthorized work in the basement laundry room area, though these appear to have been resolved. Prior to this, there were safety equipment defects noted in 2020 regarding smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 4A. The building has maintained consistent bed bug reporting with no infestations reported since 2020, and recent rodent inspections in 2025 passed, indicating some improvement in pest management. While the building has received multiple violations over the years, many have been promptly addressed and closed, though the recurring nature of heat/hot water complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
