2081 Grand Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453
The 6-story, 52-unit tenement building at 2081 Grand Avenue in University Heights, built in 1924, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years under current ownership by Heng Ly. Most notably, there has been a persistent pattern of plumbing and water-related problems, including open Housing Maintenance Code violations from December 2024 regarding a broken pressure valve and leaky faucets in Apartment A, and multiple complaints about water leaks, including a slow leak complaint from March 2025 that resulted in an inspection by HPD.
The building has also faced recurring sanitation concerns, with multiple inspections and complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and mold, most recently documented in emergency Housing Maintenance Code complaints from June 2025. Additional building issues include open violations from December 2024 related to various maintenance problems in Apartment A, such as defective bathroom fixtures and sink issues, as well as safety concerns regarding the building's door systems.
The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2023 and 2025, though baiting efforts were implemented in response. While the building's most recent bedbug reports (2022-2024) show no current infestations or eradications, it is worth noting that one unit was reported infested in 2021. The building's ownership has been responsive to some issues, as evidenced by multiple inspections and closures of service requests, but several open violations remain on record as of the latest data.
