1732 Victor Street, Bronx, NY 10462

1732 Victor Street is a 5-story, 27-unit residential building in the Van Nest neighborhood, constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Anna Pacitto. The building has experienced persistent heating and hot water issues throughout early 2025, with multiple tenant complaints filed between January and February 2025, all indicating problems affecting the entire building.

These complaints were documented as emergency Housing Maintenance Code complaints, though inspections confirmed that heat and hot water had been restored in most cases. The building's maintenance history shows several concerning patterns, including four open Housing Maintenance Code violations as of October 2023, particularly affecting Apartment 14, which has issues with plaster surfaces, paint uniformity, window repairs, and hot water supply.

Additionally, there was a security concern regarding the building's heating system access being locked (Class C violation) and a broken plaster issue in the kitchen of Apartment 14. While the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements as of March 2025, with no reported infestations during the 2023-2024 period, there was a significant fire safety violation noted in 2019 regarding obstructing bars or gates from egress windows in Basement Apartment F. The property's history of heat and hot water reliability issues, particularly during winter months, and various maintenance violations suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and infrastructure that could impact resident comfort and safety.
