1720 Victor Street, Bronx, NY 10462

The three-story, three-unit building at 1720 Victor Street in Van Nest, owned by James Quintessenza, has experienced several maintenance issues since 2018, with the most recent being a pest-related complaint in June 2024. This recent complaint, classified as unsanitary conditions, was not able to be inspected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building has experienced various infrastructure problems including water leaks (2021), heating issues (2020), and concerns about the fire escape (2019), though inspections of these issues resulted in no violations.

In 2019, there were violations documented related to plumbing issues in both the toilet and sink, and multiple appliance-related complaints. Safety and maintenance issues have been regularly addressed, including problems with a carbon monoxide detector and concerns about mold in 2018. The building's violation history shows a mix of resolved and ongoing issues, with significant attention to plumbing, appliance functionality, and safety measures.

A notable violation from 2021 involved a water leak affecting the third-story public hall, though this was subsequently certified as corrected. The building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020 through 2025, with no reported infestations in any unit during these periods. A rodent inspection in December 2022 resulted in a passing grade. While many past issues have been resolved, including those related to safety regulations and appliance functionality, the recent pest complaint and the inability to inspect following this complaint may warrant attention.
