871 Elton Avenue, Bronx

A 2005 Melrose subsidized condo under permanent affordability covenants.

This 110-unit building operates under a federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credit framework, keeping its affordability rules tied to the property long-term. While daily operations are managed by Langsam Property Services, a $1,256,909 partnership transaction went through in 2024. Three things to know:

Boiler issues hit the whole building. Residents logged 117 heat and hot water complaints, marked by a major cluster of outages in March 2026. Because many of these reports flagged whole-building heating failures, they point to a central boiler issue rather than apartment-specific pipes.

Seven open housing-code violations linger. The building carries seven open housing-code violations on its record. While none of these are immediately hazardous, unresolved items can complicate future refinancing or sales for individual unit owners.

Street-level noise on the surrounding blocks. The blocks around the building are lively, with 141 street-noise complaints and 36 vehicle-noise complaints logged within a three-block radius over the last year. Inside the building itself, residents filed 18 residential noise complaints during the same window, mostly concentrated on the lower levels.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• An open elevator complaint from June 2026 indicates some recent mechanical strain in the shafts.
• 93 illegal parking complaints within three blocks, mostly concentrated around hydrant blocks and double-parking.
• 21 encampment reports within a three-block radius, with the most recent seen in May 2026.
