1061 Intervale Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459

1061 Intervale Avenue is a 5-story, 31-unit residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Joseph Zitolo. The property has experienced multiple maintenance issues in recent months, with significant concerns emerging in June 2025, including problems with electrical outlets/switches, intercom systems, door frames, pest infestations, and various interior conditions such as walls and flooring. Two urgent maintenance issues were reported in late June 2025, specifically mold and heavy water leaks.

A comprehensive inspection of Apartment 12 in December 2024 revealed multiple violations requiring attention, including defective carbon monoxide detectors, intercom systems, plaster surfaces, smoke detectors, and evidence of rodent infestation. The building's maintenance history shows persistent challenges with pest control, particularly in 2024 when multiple violations regarding pest infestations were documented. The property's mechanical systems have undergone some attention, with nine work permits issued between 2020 and 2021, though specific details about the nature of these works were not provided in the available data.

Historical records indicate a pattern of rodent-related concerns between 2012 and 2017, with multiple failed inspections for rodent activity, though no such issues have been reported in the past six years. The building appears to maintain a relatively low incidence of bedbug infestations, with only one documented case in 2019, and no reports in subsequent years up to the present. While the property has experienced various maintenance challenges, the consistent issuance of work permits and recent inspections suggest ongoing efforts to address these issues, though many violations remain open as of mid-2025.
