2980 Valentine Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458
The 79-unit, 6-story building at 2980 Valentine Avenue in Norwood, owned by Ruzdija Nikocevic and constructed in 1931, is currently facing multiple maintenance and safety challenges as of mid-2025. Most concerning are recent indoor air quality issues with sewage odors reported in June 2025, and an ongoing Department of Health investigation regarding construction lead dust in common areas.
The building has experienced persistent plumbing problems in early 2025, with multiple complaints about toilet, sink, and shower issues, though inspections were unsuccessful in accessing the units. Historical records show the property has struggled with rodent infestations, with multiple inspections between 2023-2025 confirming rat activity, and the building's maintenance violations include mold, water leaks, and various plumbing issues. The building has several open violations requiring attention to lead-based paint hazard control compliance in apartments 114, 201, 507, and 608 as of 2024, along with an active violation regarding swarming conditions and a cycle 9C unsafe report.
Environmental Control Board records indicate past fire safety and exterior wall maintenance violations, with penalties imposed, though some have been resolved. The property has a relatively recent history of water-related issues, including slow leaks and water damage, as documented in various service requests. While the building has maintained a clean record for bedbug infestations in recent years (2020-2024), the persistence of other maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep.
