Questions about this building

Does 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx have open violations?

Yes. 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx had 12 open violations on October 10, 2026: 12 from HPD. 10 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 2 years, since June 24, 2024.

Is 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 10 open Class C, with nothing filed or new 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 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx?

Since October 12, 2023, certifications were filed on 8 Class C violations, all 8 by 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.

Does 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx have a certificate of occupancy?

Its latest certificate of occupancy is a final one, issued October 29, 2013. 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 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx last file its bedbug report?

On May 4, 2026, 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 2138 Prospect 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.

Does 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx have a property tax exemption?

The building has a 421-a tax exemption on DOF's 2026/27 roll. DOF lists its start year as 2015. An exemption lowers a property's tax bill by reducing its assessed value.

When was 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx built?

The city's record gives 2012 as the year 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a walk-up building with 3 floors.

How many apartments does 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 6 residential units at 2138 Prospect Avenue, Bronx. The count is for the whole tax lot.

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/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOF's exemption rolls, DOB certificates of occupancy, 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/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOF's exemption rolls, DOB certificates of occupancy, 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.
