2640 Davidson Avenue, Bronx, NY 10468

2640 Davidson Avenue is a 6-story, 36-unit residential building in Kingsbridge, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Scharley Torres. The building has experienced recurring maintenance and sanitary issues throughout 2023-2025, with particular concerns regarding heat and hot water systems, mold presence, and rodent infestations.

Between January 2025 and July 2025 alone, there were multiple complaints about UNsanitary conditions, including garbage storage issues and pest problems, many of which resulted in violations being issued to the property owner. The heat and hot water system has been a persistent issue, with several complaints filed and some violations recorded, though some were closed after conditions were reportedly corrected. The building's systems and infrastructure have shown various maintenance challenges, including elevator issues as documented in 2024 complaints and multiple Department of Buildings violations indicating problems with lighting fixtures in public areas.

A particularly concerning incident occurred in 2021 when the boiler room was cited for multiple issues including oil mess, inadequate lighting, and a sewage leak, though these violations were eventually resolved. While the building has regularly filed bedbug reports showing zero infestation counts since 2019, it has undergone repeated rodent control measures, with multiple inspections between 2023 and 2024 confirming rat activity, though bait has been applied consistently in response. The property currently has several active DOB violations regarding sidewalk shed installation and energy efficiency documentation requirements, though historical violations related to elevator and boiler issues have been resolved or dismissed based on subsequent repairs.
