2749 Webster Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458
2749 Webster Avenue is a 5-story, 22-unit residential building located in Fordham and owned by Joe Nebenzahl. The century-old New Law Tenement building has experienced recurring heat and hot water system issues in early 2025, with multiple complaints filed between March and April 2025, all regarding entire building outages. Of particular concern is a pattern of access issues during inspections, with HPD unable to gain entry to apartments to verify conditions.
These recent heating system problems occurred against a backdrop of previous maintenance challenges, including electrical system violations in 2019 that resulted in fines totaling $1,850 for various electrical safety issues in the basement and common areas. The building's maintenance history shows periods of concerning conditions across various systems and services. In early 2024, two notable violations were documented: one relating to a lead paint hazard in Apartment 2C (kitchen) and a mold issue in Apartment 5D (bathroom) that had been upgraded to Class B severity.
The building has also faced rodent control challenges, with inspections between 2021 and 2024 indicating rat activity in multiple years, though most recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 showed compliance. Historical records from 2023 show several violations related to building safety features, including issues with self-closing doors and glass panes in the first-story entrance. Despite these challenges, more recent bedbug and rodent inspections have shown improved conditions, with no bedbug infestations reported since 2021 and a passed rodent inspection in May 2024.
