1610 Taylor Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460

The two-story, four-unit building at 1610 Taylor Avenue in Van Nest, owned by Dhaneshwar Ramlochan and constructed in 1927 as a New Law Tenement, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years. Between 2022 and 2023, there were multiple emergency complaints related to heat and hot water, with at least six documented incidents of temperature control problems, though records show systems were restored in each case.

The building also faced plumbing issues in July 2022 and a cooking gas problem in April 2022, both of which were addressed successfully. Most recently, in September 2023, there was a Department of Health complaint regarding indoor air quality and chemical odors, which resulted in a notice to the property management for corrective action.

The building has been subject to several official inspections regarding bedbug compliance, with an open violation as of April 2024 regarding the annual bedbug report filing, though records indicate no reported infestations or need for eradication in the most recent filing period (2021-2022). Rodent inspections show generally positive results with passing grades in December 2022 and January 2012, though there was one failed inspection in December 2011 for unspecified reasons. The building's maintenance history indicates a pattern of heating system challenges, though most issues were promptly addressed, and there have been no documented health or safety incidents beyond the listed complaints and violations.
