A 2009-built Bronx rental with no open violations, but clear operational history around heat service, single-elevator outages, and air quality.
Built in 2009 with 75 units, this mid-rise rental carries no open housing-code violations, but internal calls highlight recurring mechanical and air-quality friction. Three things to know:
Winter heat calls repeat across multiple cold seasons. 21 heat and hot water complaints logged against the building, with five building-wide calls filed between November 2025 and May 2026 alone. Every call shows as resolved, but the cold-weather concentration points to persistent heating system trouble.
Indoor air quality calls and smoking complaints point to ventilation drift. 6 indoor air quality calls filed within three blocks over the trailing 12 months, paired with 16 smoking complaints inside the building's common areas between November 2025 and February 2026. Hallway smoke drift and local riser ventilation remain an active living factor.
Elevator calls group tightly into single-device outages. 11 elevator calls logged since late 2025, repeatedly flagging single-device outages on the property with no alternate service available. Outages were reported in December 2025, as well as March, April, and May 2026.
