1538 Purdy Street, Bronx, NY 10462
1538 Purdy Street, located in Parkchester, is a 2-story, 2-unit building constructed in 1915 and owned by Mohammad Islam. The property has experienced persistent maintenance and compliance issues over the past several years, with the most significant recent violations occurring in 2024 related to lead paint notification and record-keeping requirements in the 1st-floor apartment, as well as an open violation regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports. The building's history includes multiple illegal conversion complaints between 2021 and 2025, including an October 2021 violation for converting the building from a legal 2-family to a 3-family residence by improperly creating a Class "A" apartment at the basement level, for which a $2,500 penalty was imposed.
Between 2021 and 2024, there were also recurring violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent violation in 2024 still listed as open. The property's maintenance history shows some concerning issues, including a water leak incident in September 2021 that resulted in HPD inspection, though no violations were found. Additionally, there have been several Environmental Control Board violations, including a 2021 violation for work without a permit involving unauthorized construction of partition walls and installation of bathroom facilities at the basement level.
The building's records also indicate past violations related to parking regulations and building maintenance in 2018, though these were resolved. While there have been numerous inspection attempts regarding illegal conversions, only one inspection in 2022 resulted in an inability to gain access. Historically, a rodent inspection from 2012 resulted in a passing grade. As of the latest available data, no new violations or service requests have been recorded since mid-2024.
