2232 Davidson Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453

The 65-unit, 6-story New Law tenement building at 2232 Davidson Avenue in University Heights, owned by Kenny Nasab, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency service requests between April and June 2025 indicating widespread problems affecting the entire building. These heating system failures are particularly concerning given the building's age (constructed in 1923) and history of similar issues. The building has also faced various safety concerns, including open violations related to inadequate smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 34B (from late 2024), and access problems with the boiler room door noted in a November 2024 violation.

Recent rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with "Rat Activity" recorded in multiple inspections throughout 2024-2025, though some inspections passed. The property has a pattern of maintenance challenges, as evidenced by housing code violations and service requests. Notable violations include heating system failures affecting Apartment 1A in late 2024, excessive hot water temperatures, and a December 2024 violation regarding carbon monoxide detector compliance.

A Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violation from July 2024 related to a non-self-closing roof door remains active with an imposed penalty of $3,125. The building's management has received multiple housing maintenance code violations requiring attention to issues such as paint/plaster conditions, door problems, and various appliance-related concerns. While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with no reported cases in recent years, the ongoing heating system failures and safety violations, particularly those related to building systems and rodent activity, suggest persistent maintenance challenges that impact resident comfort and safety.
