2872 Valentine Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458
The two-story, converted Class A building at 2872 Valentine Avenue in Fordham, owned by Kelvin Alvarado, has experienced numerous maintenance issues since 2023, with particular concerns emerging in 2024. The most significant and recurring problem has been related to heating and hot water, with multiple emergency complaints filed between March and December 2024, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.
Additionally, there was one power outage complaint in December 2024, though an HPD inspection found no housing law violations. The ground floor apartment has been the focus of several housing maintenance code violations as of May 2024, including issues with rodent infestation (mice), water leaks, mold, and various maintenance deficiencies in the kitchen and bathroom areas. The building has shown persistent challenges with pest control, as evidenced by multiple rodent inspections throughout 2023-2025, with reports of rat activity in mid-2024 and applications of bait in response.
While the property maintained a bedbug-free status through 2025 based on official reports, the overall maintenance history suggests ongoing difficulties with basic services and sanitation. The property has undergone several rodent inspections, with the most recent occurring in May 2025, indicating continued monitoring of pest control efforts. The building's age (constructed in 1901) and classification as a "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A" property suggest it has undergone some form of conversion from its original use, though specific details of this conversion are not available in the provided data.
