2003 Hering Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461

This two-story, six-unit building located at 2003 Hering Avenue in Morris Park, owned by Simon Popovic, has experienced recurring issues with heating systems and water supply between January and May 2023. The most significant maintenance challenges have centered around heat and hot water availability, with multiple complaints filed throughout the first half of 2023, particularly affecting the entire building during February through April.

While these complaints were ultimately resolved, the pattern indicates a potentially persistent systems issue. Additionally, there were two plumbing-related complaints in May 2023, with one requiring HPD inspection but resulting in no violations. The building has several open violations as of 2024, primarily related to mandatory annual bedbug reporting requirements, which were identified during inspections in late 2023 and early 2024.

Previous years' records from late 2022 show numerous maintenance concerns in Apartment 1 and Apartment FL1, including infrastructure issues such as a water leak in the FL1 bathroom ceiling, mold problems, and door self-closing mechanism failures, some of which were classified as Class B and C violations indicating greater severity. While a carbon monoxide detector violation in Apartment 1 was closed, it highlights past safety system concerns. However, the building successfully passed an initial rodent inspection in January 2023, suggesting effective pest management protocols are in place.
