1649 Taylor Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460
The 4-story, 9-unit residential building at 1649 Taylor Avenue in Van Nest, owned by Jackie Bruncaj, has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues over the past couple of years. Most concerning is a currently open complaint from April 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage, and multiple open violations from an April 2023 inspection of apartment 4B, including issues with kitchen cabinets, bathroom tiles, and bathtub repair needs.
Recent complaints have also highlighted recurring problems with heating/hot water systems (February 2025), plumbing issues (including radiator problems in December 2024), and multiple instances of mold (December 2024). The building's maintenance history shows persistent infrastructure challenges, with emergency plumbing issues reported in June 2025 and problems with various building systems continuing into 2025.
The property has faced several regulatory compliance challenges, including an open Department of Buildings violation from September 2024 regarding the failure to file a Low Pressure Inspection, and a history of failed rodent inspections in 2012, 2022, and 2023, though a December 2022 inspection passed. While the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations over the past four reporting periods (2020-2023), these consistent maintenance issues suggest ongoing challenges with building upkeep. The combined record of violations, open complaints, and regulatory infractions indicates a pattern of delayed maintenance and safety concerns that has persisted over multiple years.
