AI summary · updated June 2026

The 1956 Cross Bronx Expressway building in Unionport is a 3-story, 3-unit New Law Tenement constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Mohammed Miah. The building experienced significant maintenance issues in October 2021, with multiple complaints filed regarding unsanitary conditions (including sewage and pest problems), water leaks, safety concerns about smoke detectors, and various maintenance issues such as bell/intercom problems, electrical outlet defects, and ceiling damage. These complaints led to several Housing Maintenance Code violations, particularly affecting the first-floor apartment (1A), which was cited for issues with mice infestation, defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, water leaks, electrical problems, ceiling damage, and a defective intercom system.

The building has undergone multiple inspections and received various violation notices between 2021 and 2024, including three Bedbug Reporting submissions indicating no infestation between 2019 and 2023. There were also complaints regarding possible illegal conversions and work without permits in 2021, though inspections were unable to be completed due to access issues. The property has maintained an active rodent management program, with mixed inspection results ranging from "Passed" to "Failed for Other Reasons" between July 2021 and October 2023. While many of the previous violations have been resolved, the building's history shows recurring maintenance issues, particularly during 2021, which required multiple interventions by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).
