1803 Mahan Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461

The 18-unit, 3-story building at 1803 Mahan Avenue in Pelham Bay, owned by Gino Ciravola, has experienced recurring heat and hot water system issues in recent months, with at least ten emergency complaints between December 2024 and February 2025. While most of these complaints were resolved relatively quickly, some inspections were initially unable to gain access to verify the conditions. The building has also faced challenges with rodent control, evidenced by multiple rat sightings and a recent unsuccessful inspection in February 2025, though a subsequent compliance inspection in March 2025 passed.

Environmental health concerns were documented in late 2024, including a mouse infestation in Apartment 24 and a cockroach infestation in Apartment 21. The building's maintenance history shows several notable violations that have required attention, including issues with safety equipment and building systems. These include a November 2024 violation for a defective carbon monoxide detector in Apartment 21, problems with self-closing doors in both Apartments 21 and 22, and various heat system failures.

The property has generally maintained good records regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in recent years (with the most recent filings from 2025 showing zero affected units). Regular rodent inspections between 2019 and 2025 show passing results in most cases, though some initial inspections have indicated rodent activity. The building has experienced two complaints regarding illegal driveway modifications in 2021, though these were closed with no violations found.
