1752 Gleason Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The two-family building at 1752 Gleason Avenue in Soundview, owned by Geovanny Torres and constructed in 1920, has recently experienced multiple concerning issues as of March 2025, including heat and hot water problems, electrical outages, and a broken safety window guard. All of these recent complaints were unable to be properly inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) due to access issues.

The property has an open Class A violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, which has been a recurring issue as evidenced by similar violations in 2023 and 2022. A February 2022 inspection revealed multiple violations in Apartment 2, including problems with heating, gas supply, smoke detector functionality, window casing, and self-closing doors, though some of these were later closed.

The building's systems have shown persistent issues with basic services; in March 2025 alone, there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water, as well as electrical problems, including power outages and outlet concerns. The property's maintenance history shows a mixed record, with some passing inspections and resolutions of various issues over the years, but the recurring nature of several violations, particularly regarding heat and utilities, suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges. Historical rodent inspections from 2010 to 2017 indicate generally acceptable conditions, though a failure was noted in August 2017.
