2597 Jerome Avenue, Bronx, NY 10468
The 5-story, 34-unit tenement building at 2597 Jerome Avenue, constructed in 1915 and currently owned by Kenneth Yustman, has experienced recurring heating and plumbing issues in early 2025, with multiple complaints about heat and hot water problems affecting both entire building and individual apartments between late January and March 2025. The building has documented violations requiring attention to lead paint hazards, particularly in apartment 56, as well as issues with window frames and plaster surfaces.
August 2024 inspections revealed several violations in apartment 56, including lead paint concerns, broken plastered surfaces, and leaky bathroom faucets, though some violations were subsequently closed by September 2024. The property has undergone various maintenance inspections and received multiple 311 service requests in recent months. Notably, there was an emergency pest control situation reported in February 2025.
The building's infrastructure has been monitored through Department of Buildings inspections, with one active ECB violation (as of May 2024) regarding non-compliant sidewalk shed installation and a $10,000 penalty related to hazardous conditions. While the building has faced recurring heat and maintenance issues, it has passed recent rodent inspections in 2024, though there were documented rat activity concerns in 2018. The building's recent history shows a pattern of maintenance issues that have required both emergency and routine responses from city agencies, particularly regarding heating systems and various apartment maintenance requirements.
