1055 Grand Concourse, Bronx, NY 10452

The 58-unit, 5-story tenement building at 1055 Grand Concourse, owned by Chase C. LLC D, has experienced significant maintenance issues in recent months. Most notably, there have been recurring heating and plumbing problems, with multiple complaints about heat/hot water issues in March and April 2025 affecting the entire building, as well as various plumbing complaints regarding bathtubs/showers, basins/sinks, and leaks.

The building, constructed in 1918, has a documented history of water-related issues, with Housing Maintenance Code violations indicating problems with water leaks and mold in multiple units, particularly in apartment 4N, where violations for water leaks and visible mold conditions greater than 10 square feet were cited in December 2024. The property has faced several infrastructure challenges over the years, including electrical concerns, with multiple complaints about exposed wiring and defective electrical systems recorded between 2019 and 2021. Recent inspections in 2024-2025 have consistently recorded rat activity, indicating ongoing pest control challenges.

The building has also had multiple Environmental Control Board violations, with the most recent active violations from 2024 concerning sewer water issues and failure to maintain proper drainage conditions, for which penalties were imposed. Although there have been intermittent bedbug issues in the past, recent filings from 2023-2025 show no current infestations. Notably, several recent HPD inspection attempts have been unable to gain access to units for verification of reported issues, with inspectors leaving cards and sending letters to residents. The building's management history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges requiring multiple complaints to address ongoing issues, particularly related to water, heat, and pest control.
