Questions about this building

Is 1512 Washington Avenue, Bronx getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 30 open Class C, with 2 certifications filed and 2 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends September 27, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.
When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 1512 Washington Avenue, Bronx?
Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 7 Class C violations, all 7 after the original certify-by date. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.
Is 1512 Washington Avenue, Bronx in HPD's Alternative Enforcement Program?
Yes. In HPD's Alternative Enforcement Program since January 31, 2025. HPD puts a group of buildings with serious, long-running violations into the program each year. While a building is in it, HPD can make repairs itself and charge the cost to the property, and the building stays in until HPD discharges it.
Does 1512 Washington Avenue, Bronx have active DOB violations?
Yes. 2 active DOB violations, most of them for low-pressure boilers. The newest was issued June 20, 2023. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.
Has DOB received complaints about 1512 Washington Avenue, Bronx?
Yes. 3 DOB complaints, 2 of them conversion complaints, in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. The newest was filed September 1, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.
Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 1512 Washington Avenue, Bronx marked completed?
Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since September 29, 2023: a general construction order, opened June 18, 2024, awarded for $3,980. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.
When was the boiler at 1512 Washington Avenue, Bronx last inspected?
On January 19, 2026. DOB requires a boiler in a building with 6 or more apartments to be inspected once every calendar year, with the report filed within 14 days of the inspection. Low-pressure boilers in residential buildings with 5 or fewer apartments are exempt.
Is 1512 Washington Avenue, Bronx rent stabilized?
