What the record shows

Where the buildings are All 11 buildings sit in Bronx. A single-borough portfolio means one set of inspectors, one housing court, and one local complaint pattern behind every number on this page.

How the violations are distributed Open violations are not spread evenly across these buildings. 2913 Ely Avenue alone carries 21 of them — 32% of everything open across the buildings with a current record — and two buildings hold half of the total. Behind it sit 2911 Ely Avenue with 20 and 2919 Ely Avenue with 16.

Violations per apartment Across 22 apartments the portfolio runs 2.95 open violations per unit. five buildings average at least one open violation for every apartment in them.

The split inside the portfolio 5 of the 11 buildings with a current record have nothing open against them today, while 6 do. Portfolio-level averages hide that split, which is why the list is worth reading one row at a time.

What tenants called in Tenants filed 40 complaints against these buildings in the last 12 months, or 1.82 per apartment. The heaviest was 2911 Ely Avenue with 16. Complaints and violations are separate records — a complaint that closed without an inspector getting inside leaves no violation behind it.

Age of the stock The median building here went up in 2006, and 1 of 11 predate 1960. Pre-1960 buildings carry lead-paint and window-guard obligations that newer stock does not, which shapes what turns up in an inspection.

How long things stay open The longest-standing open item in the portfolio is at 2911 Ely Avenue and has been open 4.0 years. An old open violation is not a paperwork lag — it is a condition the city recorded and has not been shown to be corrected.

What has moved in the last two years 51 violations were written against these buildings in the last 24 months. 10 of them — 20% — have since been cleared, and 41 are still open. That ratio moves between city sweeps, which is why a standing total on its own says less than it looks like it does.
