62 East 190th Street, Bronx, NY 10468

62 East 190th Street is a 5-story, 26-unit New Law tenement building built in 1916 and currently owned by Heng Ly. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues in recent months, with multiple complaints filed in April 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions (pests), window frame problems, flooring issues, and plumbing concerns in bathtubs/showers. Notably, in March 2025, violations were documented for ceiling paint/plaster problems and mold, though these complaints were inspected by HPD.

The building underwent a significant inspection on September 27, 2024, revealing several open violations in Apartment 4D, including water leak repairs, pest infestations (mice and roaches), mold conditions, and various maintenance issues affecting bathroom ceilings, kitchen floors, and walls. The property has maintained regular compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections conducted in 2022, 2023, and 2024, with the most recent inspection in April 2025 also passing. While there was one infestation reported in 2023-2024 (which was fully eradicated), the period from 2020 to 2022 showed no recorded infestations.

However, the building has experienced recurring issues with pests, as evidenced by multiple 311 complaints and housing maintenance code violations in recent months. The most recent inspection records show the building's management has been notified of several violations requiring correction, including issues related to carbon monoxide and smoke detector requirements in common areas. While there have been numerous complaints and violations, the building has demonstrated some responsiveness to addressing these issues through the appropriate channels, with many complaints being formally closed through inspections and violation processes.
