1249 Beach Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The two-family residence at 1249 Beach Avenue in Soundview, owned by Muhibur Rahman, is a two-story brick building constructed in 1920. The property has experienced two notable emergency incidents in recent years, both of which required intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

The most recent incident occurred in March 2022, when the entire building faced heat and hot water issues. HPD intervened, contacted tenants, and confirmed that the identified conditions were corrected, leading to the resolution of the complaint on the same day it was filed. Prior to that, in October 2021, there was a cooking gas-related emergency complaint that required inspection, but HPD was unable to gain access to the property for verification purposes, though the complaint was subsequently closed on October 25, 2021.

The building's documented history over the past few years suggests some infrastructure challenges, particularly in relation to essential services such as heating and cooking gas, which are critical for resident comfort and safety. While the heat and hot water issue was promptly addressed and resolved, the lack of access for inspection during the cooking gas complaint raises some concerns about communication or access protocols during that period. Both incidents were categorized as emergencies, indicating their potential impact on resident safety and comfort, though the property has shown responsiveness to regulatory interventions where access could be granted.
