2311 Haviland Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 2311 Haviland Avenue in Unionport, owned by Anthony Iocovello and constructed in 2009, has experienced several notable incidents and maintenance issues over the past few years. In June 2023, the building faced several urgent maintenance concerns, including complaints about heating and hot water issues and problems with an electric/gas range, though Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect these conditions.

Multiple violations were recorded during a June 2023 inspection, including safety-related issues such as the need to post carbon monoxide detector requirements, gas leak procedures, and smoke detector requirements in the public areas. While many of these violations, particularly those related to notice requirements, were subsequently closed in September 2023, several remain open, including a violation concerning missing heating system access notice and an annual bedbug report filing requirement from March 2024. The building has also experienced some security-related issues, with a Department of Buildings complaint regarding an alleged illegal conversion in December 2023, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their final attempt in January 2024.

During the summer of 2023, there were additional concerns about various building systems, including a malfunctioning main entrance door and missing inspection certificate frames. The property has undergone multiple inspections and received numerous violations since 2022, with many related to administrative requirements such as posting proper notices and maintaining self-closing doors. While some issues have been addressed and violations closed, including those related to various safety notice requirements, several significant violations remain open as of the most recent data in 2024, indicating ongoing compliance challenges for the property.
