Summary · as of November 9, 2026
1719 Watson Avenue (Bronx, NY 10472; tax lot BBL 2037490073) is a two-family home (building class B9: two-family home, miscellaneous), built around 1955, on a 2,400 sq ft lot zoned R6. City tax records list the owner as 1719 WATSON LLC; per ACRIS, a deed to this owner dated March 12, 2025 lists a price of $920,000. The Department of Finance's final market value for tax year 2027 is $958,000. As of November 9, 2026, NYC Open Data shows no open DOB jobs, no active DOB, DOB NOW safety or ECB violations and no open HPD violations for this lot, but it does show 35 OATH tickets with an unpaid balance. An unpaid OATH ticket is a fine the city says is still owed. It is counted separately from violations, so this lot has no open violations but is not free of outstanding items. There were six 311 requests in the past 12 months and five HPD complaints since 2019. (Source: NYC Open Data — DOB, HPD, OATH, DOF, DCP and ACRIS datasets — compiled by NYC Property Facts.)
