1087 Summit Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452

1087 Summit Avenue is a 5-story, 25-unit residential building constructed in 1927, currently owned by Madelyn Lugo. The property has experienced persistent heating and hot water system issues throughout 2025, with seven emergency complaints filed between January 9 and February 21, all involving the entire building and requiring HPD intervention to confirm resolution of the problems. While the building's heating issues have been addressed each time, the frequency of complaints raises concerns about system reliability.

The building has maintained a clean bedbug record with no reported infestations since 2019, and recent rodent inspections have generally passed, though one inspection in September 2024 noted rat activity. The property has undergone various repairs and addressed multiple violations over recent years. In 2022, several violations were documented in apartment 4A, including issues with an intercom system, leaky faucets, GFCI electrical outlet, and water leak evidence, all of which were certified as corrected by September 2023.

Apartment 5C had violations related to door issues, which were resolved between late 2022 and early 2023. The building has two active violations from April 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2022 external low pressure inspection. While historical data shows consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, the recent pattern of heating system complaints suggests potential ongoing infrastructure challenges.
