2066 Matthews Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462
The property at 2066 Matthews Avenue in Bronxdale is a two-family house built in 1925, currently owned by Vito Chirico. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues in recent years, with the most recent complaints filed in March, January, and December of 2025, all receiving emergency status and requiring HPD inspections.
Previous complaints from 2019, 2022, and earlier also indicate ongoing problems with heating systems, though inspections were often complicated by access issues. The building experienced significant maintenance issues in 2019, with multiple open violations noted for Apartment 2, including problems with water temperature regulation (with violations addressing scalding hot water exceeding 130 degrees), insect infestations (mice and roaches), various kitchen and bathroom fixture issues, and general maintenance problems like broken tiles and floor damage. The property faced regulatory scrutiny in late 2018 regarding potential illegal conversion violations, with the Department of Buildings issuing citations for work done without proper permits, including unauthorized construction of additional bedrooms and a bathroom.
Inspection results from 2019 showed multiple violations in need of correction, including improper cabinet repairs and water-related issues. Despite these concerns, more recent inspections have shown improvements, with rodent inspections in 2016, 2023, and 2024 all passing, and no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years according to official filings. The building's ownership and management pattern shows some history of delayed response to maintenance issues, with open violations from 2019 still showing as unresolved in the records, though many previous violations have been addressed or closed.
