4687 Park Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The 4-story, 8-unit tenement building at 4687 Park Avenue, owned by Daisy Sinchi and built in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there is an active Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 for failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2020 and 2021. Throughout 2024, the building faced recurring moisture-related problems, with multiple reports of mold, water leaks, and ceiling issues, all of which were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) but typically resulted in no violations being issued.

The building has also dealt with pest-related challenges, with documented infestations of roaches and mice in Apartments 4 and 6 during 2023-2024, and two separate pest-related complaints in March 2024 that resulted in violations. Safety concerns have been addressed through various HPD inspections, with violations noted in 2024 for non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 4, though these were certified as corrected by April 2024. The building's management has maintained regular compliance with rodent inspections, though there have been periods of rat activity recorded in 2023, most recently noted in June 2023.

While the property has had multiple service requests and inspections throughout 2024 for various maintenance issues including door repairs and garbage storage problems, it's worth noting that many of these complaints were resolved without resulting in formal violations. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2022 through 2024 indicates no infestations, and the most recent rodent inspection in July 2025 resulted in a passing grade, suggesting some improvement in pest management. However, the persistent pattern of moisture-related issues, as evidenced by multiple complaints and inspections throughout 2024, remains the most significant ongoing challenge for this property.
