2070 Vyse Avenue, Bronx

    The registered owner is a lender, not a landlord — this 9-unit Bronx walk-up has 326 open HPD violations, 103 of them immediately hazardous, and an active city heat lawsuit.

    Three heat lawsuits in 2025, 326 open violations in a 9-unit building.

    103 of the open violations here are Class C — the immediately-hazardous tier: no heat, no hot water, lead, vermin, broken locks. Four things to know:

    The registered owner is a lender, not an operator. The corporate owner of record is '564 Hempstead Lender LLC.' Lenders land on the registration when a property is in foreclosure or receivership. Day-to-day is run by Bronstein Properties (agent Ray Seelall). If something breaks, it's unclear who pays.

    17 cooking-gas violations written up between September and April. When this many neighbors flag gas in a short window, it usually means the same thing: a leak gets reported, Con Ed shuts the line off for safety, and tenants can be stuck cooking on hot plates for weeks while the repair works through certification.

    The heat problem is already in court. The owner was sued over heat three times in 2025; one case is still open. 49 heat and hot water complaints in three years. The boiler is a known, unresolved problem.

    On a single day this April, an inspector opened complaints across six categories. Doors and windows, floors, plumbing, paint and plaster, water leak, plus general conditions — nine complaints filed April 9, 2026. That's an inspector walking the building and writing up everything they saw.
