Regulated 11-unit Bronx rental carrying one open mold violation, set against a surrounding block with heavy residential noise and recurring indoor air quality calls.
This 11-unit University Heights rental operates as fully subsidized housing under LIHTC and HUD program oversight. Inside, management handles standard repairs without letting complaints pile up into open code violations, but neighborhood air quality and noise patterns require attention. Three things to know:
One open housing violation on file alongside steady resolution of minor calls. The building carries one open Class B housing violation issued in September 2023 for bathroom window casing mold in Apartment 4S. Other resident calls for doors, pests, and wall plaster filed through late 2025 were resolved promptly without turning into open code violations.
Surrounding block shows recurring indoor air quality and ventilation complaints. Ten indoor air quality complaints were logged within three blocks over the last year, most recently on August 17, 2026. Odors and vapor issues often leak through shared risers or window lines, making air shaft proximity a key variable for unit comfort.
Heavy residential noise and curb parking activity along the surrounding streets. Within three blocks over the trailing year, 353 residential noise calls were recorded, dominated by 232 reports of banging or pounding and 113 for loud music. Curb congestion is also frequent, with 307 illegal parking reports in the same radius, mostly for posted sign infractions and double-parked vehicles.
