2536 Boston Road, Bronx, NY 10467
The two-family house at 2536 Boston Road in Allerton, built in 1905 and currently owned by Ishtiaq Alam, has experienced numerous maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most pressing concerns being recurring heating/hot water problems and various building maintenance violations. Most recently, in October 2024, there were service complaints regarding no lighting and heat/hot water issues, with the lighting inspection being incomplete and heat/hot water confirmed restored during the inspection. The property has a persistent history of heating system problems, with multiple complaints documented from 2021 through 2024, including an entire building heat/hot water outage in September 2022 that resulted in issued violations.
The second floor apartment (Apartment 2) currently has open violations from September 2024 regarding defective wood floors, kitchen cabinet issues, and bathtub problems, though there have been previous violations from 2023 related to leaky faucets and various ceiling repairs that were eventually closed. The building's maintenance history reveals several concerning patterns, including pest issues, with violations documented in September 2022, and an overall unsanitary condition also noted in 2022. The property has undergone multiple inspections regarding potential illegal conversions, with Department of Buildings complaints in 2020 and 2022 regarding unauthorized occupancy changes, though inspectors were unable to gain access to complete their evaluations.
Environmental Control Board records show a resolved violation from 2022 concerning occupancy contrary to permitted use. The building's exterior maintenance has also been problematic, with rodent inspections in early 2023 indicating rat activity and failed compliance. While there have been no documented bedbug infestations between 2020-2022, the frequency and variety of maintenance issues suggest ongoing challenges with property upkeep and building systems reliability.
