1011 Carroll Place, Bronx, NY 10456

The 6-story, 56-unit building at 1011 Carroll Place in Concourse Village, built in 1936 and currently owned by M Fishman, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Of particular concern are recurring problems with unsanitary conditions, including garbage storage (April 2025), rodent activity (multiple inspections throughout 2024-2025), and an ongoing pest management challenge, with four pest-related complaints between March and April 2025 alone. The building has also faced multiple heating and plumbing issues, including both apartment-specific and building-wide heating problems (most recently in June 2025) and various water-related concerns. Recent inspections and complaints reveal several pattern of violations and maintenance challenges.

These include multiple violations related to garbage/recycling storage (2025), refrigerator appliance issues (2025), and heat/hot water deficiencies (2025). The building's maintenance history shows a persistent problem with elevator service, as evidenced by multiple complaints between 2020 and 2021 regarding single-device operation without alternate service. Safety-related violations have included issues with carbon monoxide detectors and emergency door functionality. The property has also undergone several investigations regarding illegal conversions (2025) and work without proper permits (2023), though these complaints were ultimately resolved with varying outcomes.

Historical data shows a concerning pattern of maintenance violations related to building systems, including a defective boiler (2022) and electrical system concerns (2023), along with multiple Environmental Control Board violations regarding building safety and maintenance requirements. The building's management has taken some steps to address these issues, as evidenced by multiple permit applications and the closure of several violations, though some problems have shown persistence or recurrence. Recent inspections in 2025 have resulted in both violations and resolutions, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges. While the building shows compliance with bedbug reporting requirements (with no reported cases since 2018), the frequency of rodent-related findings suggests ongoing challenges with pest management. The property has maintained a pattern of addressing violations through certification and repairs, though the timeline for some corrections has prompted recommendations for tenants to pursue housing court actions in certain cases.
