2303 Holland Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

2303 Holland Avenue is a 5-story, 45-unit residential building located in the Allerton neighborhood, constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Rosa Ferraro. The building has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years, particularly noticeable between February and May 2025, when multiple complaints were filed and investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). These issues included water leaks (with violations issued), heat/hot water problems in the entire building, flooring concerns, and various paint/plaster problems.

An inspection in October 2024 revealed multiple Class C violations related to lead paint hazards in apartment 4K, including peeling paint on walls and within window frames, though some earlier violations were marked as closed. The building shows a concerning pattern of safety equipment deficiencies, with open violations in 2024 for non-functional carbon monoxide detectors in apartments 4K and 5C, and a previously documented issue with a defective stove that caught fire in 2021. The property has a mixed record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past several years.

However, rodent inspection results show inconsistent pass/fail patterns between 2009 and 2022. The building's management has faced some regulatory scrutiny, including a 2023 violation for failing to file a required low-pressure inspection, though this was subsequently dismissed. Historical data shows the building has experienced various maintenance issues over time, including a gas-related incident in 2021 that resulted in an Environmental Control Board violation with a $1,250 penalty related to a defective stove that caught fire. The most recent inspections in 2025, while generating multiple service requests, resulted in no violations being issued for certain complaints, though this pattern of repeated issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
