877 Brook Avenue, Bronx, NY 10451
The five-story old law tenement building at 877 Brook Avenue in Melrose, owned by Paul Moore, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent months. The most pressing current concerns include two open complaints from March 2025 regarding plumbing issues (specifically a sink problem) and an electric/gas range appliance issue that require tenant access for resolution.
Additionally, in April 2025, there was a water leak complaint with heavy flow conditions, though inspectors were unable to access the affected rooms and no violations were issued. The building has a pattern of heat and hot water-related complaints, with multiple incidents reported between December 2024 and February 2025, though inspections generally found conditions to be compliant with housing laws. The property has also faced some structural and safety concerns, including open Housing Maintenance Code violations from August 2024 related to roach infestation and paint conditions in Apartment B4, as well as multiple open violations from 2023-2024 regarding external low-pressure system inspection filings that remain active.
Recent inspections have shown variable results for rodent control, with some initial inspections failing for various reasons in 2024, though subsequent compliance inspections have generally passed. The building's history includes occasional bedbug infestations, with the most recent reports in 2023-2024 showing temporary occurrences that were eradicated. While the property has undergone some improvements, as evidenced by various permits issued in 2018-2019 for electrical work, the persistent nature of certain maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep and maintenance response times.
