760 Van Nest Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

The three-story, three-unit building at 760 Van Nest Avenue, constructed in 1901 and currently owned by Mohibul Islam, has experienced persistent issues with heat and hot water in recent years. From December 2024 through March 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding heat and hot water problems, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. HPD inspections in December 2024 resulted in violations for inadequate heat and hot water in Apartment 2, as well as access issues to the building's heating system.

The building faces several open violations from December 2024, particularly affecting Apartment 3, including issues with carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, roof leaks in the kitchen, and insufficient hot water supply. Additional concerns include plumbing problems reported in July 2024, though HPD inspectors were unable to gain access to verify these issues. The building's maintenance history indicates some infrastructure challenges, with an open violation regarding a broken window pane in the second-floor public hall noted in December 2024.

While the property passed a rodent compliance inspection in February 2023, it failed an initial inspection in December 2022. There was also a complaint regarding illegal conversion in February 2022, though inspectors were unable to gain access during the investigation. The building's documented history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly concerning the heating system and basic infrastructure, with many complaints requiring multiple follow-ups and inspections due to access issues. While some violations from December 2024 were closed, several remain open as of the most recent records, indicating these issues have not yet been fully resolved.
