Questions about this building

Is 296 Brook Avenue, Bronx getting better or worse?

Certifications are being filed about as fast as new violations come in. 6 certifications filed and 7 new Class C in the last 180 days, neither far ahead. That window ends September 26, 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 296 Brook Avenue, Bronx?

Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 23 Class C violations: 22 by the original certify-by date, 1 after it. HPD now marks 2 of them False 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 296 Brook Avenue, Bronx have an OATH hearing coming up?

Yes. A hearing on a DOB summons is set for October 2, 2026. 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.

Is 296 Brook Avenue, Bronx in housing court?

Yes. 1 open housing court case, opened October 18, 2024. 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 296 Brook Avenue, Bronx?

Yes. 2 DOB complaints in the last 12 months. The newest was filed July 14, 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.

When was 296 Brook Avenue, Bronx built?

The city's record gives 1907 as the year 296 Brook Avenue, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as an elevator apartment building with 6 floors.

How many apartments does 296 Brook Avenue, Bronx have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 30 residential units at 296 Brook 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 hearing dates, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 26, 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, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. 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.
