1899 Crotona Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

1899 Crotona Avenue is an 8-story, 64-unit residential building constructed in 2019 and currently owned by Paul Gjonaj. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in 2025, most notably with heating and hot water systems, which generated multiple emergency complaints in January 2025, though these were generally resolved promptly. There are ongoing concerns as of April 2025, including an open complaint regarding ceiling paint/plaster issues.

Recent inspections in April 2025 found violations related to wall paint/plaster conditions and plumbing issues, with similar access issues noted for pest complaints. The building is currently facing multiple active complaints regarding its single elevator service, entered in May 2025. The property has a history of various regulatory violations and maintenance issues since construction. Between 2020-2021, there were multiple instances of failure to file required energy benchmarking reports, though most of these violations were subsequently dismissed.

The building has also seen several infrastructure-related problems, including electrical issues (e.g., lighting and wiring concerns), plumbing problems (including radiator issues), and construction safety compliance matters. The Department of Buildings records show periods with both acknowledged violations and instances where no violations were found upon inspection. Notably, the building's bedbug reporting for the 2022-2024 periods shows zero infestation cases, indicating effective pest management. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and elevator service, most historical violations have been resolved through appropriate channels, and there is currently no indication of active pest or bedbug issues.
