2192 Walton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453

2192 Walton Avenue is a 22-unit, 4-story residential building located in Fordham, constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Nowshad Ali. The property has experienced recurring heating issues, with the most recent complaints about lack of heat or hot water in January 2025 and October 2023, both affecting the entire building. The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to access units during the January 2025 inspection, while in October 2023, tenants reported that heat and hot water had been restored.

The building has faced multiple pest-related challenges, particularly in 2023, with violations documented for roaches and mice infestations in Apartment 303 in September 2023, as well as three separate pest-related complaints in April 2023 that resulted in violations. Safety concerns have been noted regarding smoke and carbon monoxide detectors; in September 2023, violations were recorded for a defective smoke detector in Apartment 201 and missing carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 303. The building has maintained active rodent control measures, passing inspections consistently from 2021 through 2025, though there was one failure noted in July 2020.

There are currently open violations related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspection reports for 2018 and 2019, issued in June 2023. Historical maintenance issues include a December 2021 heating complaint, multiple heating-related emergencies between 2019 and 2020, and an asbestos complaint from March 2019. The building has demonstrated some progress in addressing safety concerns, with several violations from 2022-2023 being closed after corrections were made, including repair of smoke detectors in Apartment 205 and addressing roof leaks through the ceiling at the public hall on the 4th floor. The building's most recent rodent inspection in May 2025 resulted in a "Passed" rating, continuing a pattern of compliance in recent years.
