580 Van Nest Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460
The three-unit, two-story building at 580 Van Nest Avenue, owned by Vishnu Persaud and dating back to 1899, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most pressing being a currently active violation regarding a defective retaining wall in the rear yard (as of July 2024) that is leaning into the neighboring property, resulting in a $655 penalty. The building has demonstrated recurring compliance issues with bedbug reporting requirements, receiving violations between 2021-2024 for failing to file annual reports, though recent filings from 2024 show no current infestations.
Notably, in December 2018, there were multiple emergency complaints related to heat and hot water issues, as well as mold problems, which resulted in several violations against the building, including safety concerns such as defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, kitchen floor issues, and various maintenance requirements specific to apartment 1R. Recent history shows improved conditions regarding pest control, with all subsequent bedbug reports indicating zero infested units, and the most recent rodent inspections (2022 and 2017) both passed.
The building's regulatory history reveals some recurring themes, particularly related to documentation requirements and maintenance compliance, though many previous violations from 2018-2019 have been addressed and closed. The most recent infrastructure concern - the retaining wall issue - represents the only significant active violation on record as of July 2025, though it's worth noting that this incident occurred nearly 125 years after the building's original construction and represents a relatively recent structural concern when compared to the building's overall history.
