1478 Beach Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460
1478 Beach Avenue is a 5-story, 20-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1929, currently owned by Mark Engel. The building has experienced recurring maintenance challenges over the past several years, with particular issues related to water systems, heating, and building maintenance. Most recently, in late 2024, there were complaints about water supply issues, while earlier incidents in 2023-2024 involved multiple emergency repairs including water leaks, plumbing problems, and heating system concerns.
The building has a history of moisture-related issues, with several instances of water supply problems documented through 311 complaints and housing maintenance code violations. Significant maintenance issues were noted in 2023-2024, particularly affecting apartments 2 and 17, where violations were issued for plaster and ceiling repairs, bathroom maintenance, and mold conditions. The building has also undergone rodent control measures, with inspections in 2024 showing rat activity, though earlier inspections in 2018 and 2022 passed.
Notable violations include access issues to the heating system and missing required notices about the heating system access in late 2023. The property has maintained a clean bedbug record over multiple inspection periods from 2019 through 2024, with no reported infestations. While some violations have been promptly addressed and closed, others, particularly those related to mold and water systems, suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that have persisted over time.
