2409 Grand Avenue is a 4-story, 12-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1909 and currently owned by Ryan Zar. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly regarding safety and basic infrastructure. Most recently, in 2025, there have been concerns about broken window guards and intercom systems, with HPD inspections being unable to complete their evaluations.

Between late 2023 and throughout 2024, multiple maintenance issues were documented, including violations for ceiling paint/plaster damage, flooring problems, and water leaks, particularly in Apartment 6 on the 3rd floor. The building has also faced persistent rodent control challenges, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2024 and 2025, though some baiting efforts were implemented. The property has several open violations as of 2024-2025, including issues regarding unauthorized roof wood partitions and multiple instances of work being done without proper permits.

Historical data shows past concerns about security features, including broken locks and missing doors, though many of these have been resolved. The building's infrastructure has experienced various system failures, including power outages and unsanitary conditions, with some violations related to inadequate maintenance of security features and roof elements. While not directly impacting current tenant conditions, the property has a history of administrative issues with violation filings and inspection requirements, particularly regarding the external low-pressure inspection and boiler maintenance reporting. Importantly, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years, as per mandatory reporting requirements.
