1450 East Gun Hill Road, Bronx, NY 10469

1450 East Gun Hill Road is a 4-story, 9-unit residential building constructed in 1936, currently owned by James Maris. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with the most recent complaint received in May 2025 and five similar complaints documented throughout 2024, including violations in January 2025 related to heat and hot water problems. These complaints have typically been classified as emergencies, though in some cases, inspectors were unable to gain access to units for verification.

The building has also faced various maintenance challenges, including plumbing issues (June 2024), and multiple active violations related to lead paint hazard control requirements in Apartments 4 and 8 (June 2023), as well as an open violation concerning gas supply to fixtures in Apartment 2 (September 2023). The Department of Buildings' records reveal several concerns regarding the boiler system, with multiple complaints documented between 2022 and 2025, including a notable defective/inoperative designation in November 2022 that resulted in a violation. Though an Environmental Control Board violation was issued in December 2022 regarding fresh air intake and relief valve issues, this was resolved with a $655 penalty.

The building's bedbug reporting for the past three years shows no confirmed infestations, and rodent inspections conducted in 2022 and 2023 have generally passed, except for one failed inspection in August 2023. Two separate illegal conversion complaints were filed in 2022, though inspectors were denied access to verify these claims. The building has also received two active violations for failure to file external low-pressure inspection reports for 2020 and 2021.
