Questions about this building

Does 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx have open violations?

Yes. 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx had 77 open violations on October 10, 2026: 76 from HPD and 1 from OATH/ECB. 36 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 4 years, since May 27, 2022.

Is 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx getting better or worse?

Certifications are being filed faster than new violations come in. 33 certifications filed against 15 new Class C in the last 180 days. That window ends October 10, 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 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx?

Since October 12, 2023, certifications were filed on 53 Class C violations: 42 by the original certify-by date, 11 after it. HPD now marks 2 of them Invalid Certification. 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.

Does 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx have an OATH hearing coming up?

Yes. A hearing on a DOB summons is set for March 12, 2027. DOB summonses are heard at OATH, the city's hearings office, and OATH can move a hearing to a later date. When nobody shows up, the summons is decided by default, the costliest way one ends.

Does 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx have active DOB violations?

Yes. 6 active DOB violations. The newest was issued April 27, 2022. 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 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx been in housing court?

Yes. 4 housing court cases here since 2022, most of them tenant actions. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.

Has DOB received complaints about 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx?

Yes. 3 DOB complaints in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. The newest was filed May 29, 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 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx marked completed?

Yes. 2 completed HPD emergency repair orders since October 12, 2023, awarded for $1,159 in total. The most recent of the 2, a general construction order, was opened August 29, 2025. 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.

Does 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx have a certificate of occupancy?

Its latest certificate of occupancy is temporary, renewed June 24, 2024. A certificate of occupancy says how a building may be used and occupied. A temporary one lets people move in while work finishes and has to be renewed until DOB issues the final one. DOB's records here start in July 2012, so an older certificate may not show.

When did 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx last file its bedbug report?

On December 30, 2025, for the year to October 31, 2025. HPD asks the owner of every building with 3 or more apartments for this report once a year, covering November 1 to October 31, including buildings that had no bedbugs.

Is 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx rent stabilized?

The building has rent-stabilized apartments on its 2024 registration. That comes from the Rent Guidelines Board's list of buildings with at least one stabilized apartment registered that year. Buildings that registered late are left off, and a 421-a or J-51 building can leave stabilization when its tax benefit ends. A particular apartment's status is for NYS HCR to say.

When was 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx built?

The city's record gives 1931 as the year 701 Elton Avenue, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a hotel with 5 floors.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on OATH hearing dates, OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOF's tax lien sale lists, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB NOW work permits, DOB certificates of occupancy, HPD emergency repair orders, HPD's annual bedbug reports, the city's PLUTO tax-lot file and DOF's property sales records. This page is current through October 10, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus OATH hearing dates, OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOF's tax lien sale lists, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB NOW work permits, DOB certificates of occupancy, HPD emergency repair orders, HPD's annual bedbug reports, the city's PLUTO tax-lot file and DOF's property sales records. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
