2700 Henry Hudson Pkwy E, Bronx, NY 10463

2700 Henry Hudson Parkway E is a 6-story, 78-unit residential building constructed in 1955, currently owned by Shimmie Horn. The property has experienced recurring heating system issues, with multiple heat and hot water complaints reported throughout late 2024 and into early 2025, including January 17 and January 12, 2025, though HPD confirmed that heat and hot water were restored in these instances. The building has also faced several infrastructure challenges, including a significant plumbing issue involving steam pipes/riser in December 2024.

Building maintenance concerns were documented in December 2024, with violations related to self-closing doors at the compactor closet on the 6th story, and a November 2023 violation noted for hot water temperature exceeding 130 degrees Fahrenheit in apartment 6H, creating a scalding hazard. Recent years have shown the building facing various structural and safety compliance issues. A 2023 facade inspection resulted in an active "Unsafe" notification under LL11/98, and multiple violations were filed regarding work without proper permits, including exterior wall work and suspended scaffold installation in May 2023, though these violations were later resolved. The building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding pest management, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past three years (2019-2024), and rat activity inspections showing improved compliance, passing inspections in 2022 and 2023, despite initial failures in previous years.

The property has undergone various repairs and maintenance actions, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations being certified as closed in early 2025. Historical records show earlier violations from 2020-2021 related to apartment maintenance issues in unit 7C, including problems with plaster surfaces, bathroom fittings, and paint uniformity. The building's management has demonstrated responsiveness to violations, with many being promptly addressed and certified as corrected through proper channels. The absence of recent pest infestations and active rodent control compliance in 2023 indicates improved management of basic maintenance issues, though the recent heating system problems suggest ongoing infrastructure challenges.
