Augrented Insights Report for 2599 Briggs Avenue

The 10-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement building at 2599 Briggs Avenue in Fordham, owned by Joe Nebenzahl and constructed in 1913, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been numerous complaints and service requests regarding heat and hot water problems in 2024 and early 2025, with multiple instances where HPD was unable to gain access for inspection.

The building has also faced significant challenges with rodent control, as evidenced by three periods of rat activity detected between 2024 and 2025, though recent inspections have passed. In January 2023, violations were documented for mold, water leaks, and various repair needs in Apartment 2N, including pest infestations and issues with windows and bathroom conditions, though these were subsequently certified as corrected by April 2023.

The building's most recent maintenance history from 2025 shows a series of non-emergency and emergency complaints being addressed in April 2025, covering various issues including plumbing, door and window problems, water leaks, and unsanitary conditions. A potentially serious concern is the active Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding failure to file a required external low-pressure inspection. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years, the building's maintenance record shows persistent issues with basic services and building maintenance, particularly relating to heating systems and water supply.
