710 Noble Avenue, Bronx, NY 10473

The 59-unit, six-story residential building at 710 Noble Avenue, owned by Jeffrey Levine and constructed in 1969, has experienced multiple maintenance and safety issues in recent months (May-July 2025). Current open violations include emergency-level concerns with doors and multiple plumbing issues (toilets, bathtubs/showers, sinks) as well as non-emergency problems with flooring/stairs and wall conditions.

Between May and June 2025, the building faced several health and safety concerns, including pest infestations, unsanitary conditions, and elevator maintenance issues, though many of these complaints were found not to violate housing laws upon inspection. The elevator system has been particularly problematic, with documented complaints about single-device operation and lack of alternate service in both 2024 and 2025, leading to official referrals to NYCHA.

Historical records show recurring compliance issues with required inspections and reports, including failures to submit Elevator Evaluation Reports (EERs) during 2020-2023, a missed FISP Cycle 9A technical report deadline in 2022, and a Category 5 inspection failure in 2021 (though the latter was later dismissed). While the building reported no bedbug infestations in the most recent annual reporting period (2023-2024), the frequency of plumbing-related complaints and recent elevator maintenance issues suggest ongoing infrastructure challenges. It's notable that HPD inspections in response to various complaints have sometimes revealed violations requiring correction, particularly concerning elevator maintenance and pest control, indicating potential ongoing maintenance and safety oversight challenges.
