1612 Taylor Avenue, Bronx, NY 10460

The two-family house at 1612 Taylor Avenue in the Van Nest neighborhood, owned by Aaron Anderson, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years that warrant attention. Most recently, in February 2025, there was a heat and hot water emergency in one of the apartments that resulted in violations being issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), which required the property owner to address the conditions within a specified timeframe.

This complaint follows a water supply plumbing emergency from July 2022, which was resolved within two days of reporting. The building's record also includes a Department of Buildings complaint from February 2025 regarding an alleged illegal conversion, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their final attempts to verify the situation.

On a more positive note, the property passed a rodent inspection conducted in December 2022, indicating compliance with pest control standards at that time. It's important to note that the most recent heating system issues occurred during the winter months, which can significantly impact resident comfort and safety, and the building is now facing violations that require correction under NYC housing law.
