1130 Havemeyer Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

1130 Havemeyer Avenue is a 3-story, 4-unit residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Mahendra Lauchman. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with complaints filed in 2024, 2023, and earlier dates. Recent complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, including a November 2024 heat/hot water complaint that HPD could not inspect, and a November 2023 unsanitary condition complaint regarding pests that also could not be inspected.

The building has undergone several inspections and received multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations, most notably in 2023 when Apartment 2S received violations for roach infestation, window repairs, waste line issues, and missing safety devices (including smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector). Prior to this, similar issues were documented in 2022 in Apartment 2N, including pest problems and window repairs. The building's history shows periodic maintenance challenges, particularly related to heating systems and pest control. In addition to the ongoing heat and hot water issues, the building has faced several safety-related violations, including problems with window guards, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors.

A 2022 violation indicated problems with access to the heating system, and a 2023 Department of Buildings violation was recorded for failure to file an external low-pressure inspection, though this was dismissed. Notably, all bedbug reports from 2021 to 2025 show zero infested or eradicated units, suggesting effective pest management in this area. Recent rodent inspections (2010 and 2022) passed, indicating no significant rodent issues. While some repairs and violations have been addressed and certified as corrected, the pattern of heat, hot water, and pest complaints suggests ongoing maintenance challenges at this property.
