961 East 180th Street, Bronx, NY 10460
The 99-unit residential building at 961 East 180th Street in West Farms, owned by Valerie Torres, has experienced several notable maintenance and operational issues since its construction in 1998. Most concerning have been ongoing elevator problems, with multiple complaints recorded between 2022 and 2025, including dangerous shutdowns and a lack of active elevator maintenance contracts that resulted in substantial Environmental Control Board penalties in 2024.
The building has also faced recurring issues with sanitation, particularly in 2020, when multiple complaints regarding garbage/recycling storage conditions were filed, though most were resolved without violations. A significant pest infestation affecting apartment 5E was documented in August 2022, with violations issued for both roaches and mice. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs in recent years, with no reported cases between 2021 and the present, and has consistently passed rodent inspections since 2015, including the most recent one in January 2025.
However, the building has accumulated several violations related to energy benchmarking requirements since 2022, including failures to file mandatory reports and display efficiency scores, with multiple active violations remaining as of 2023-2024. A notable safety-related violation was issued in 2023 regarding defective self-closing doors in apartment 3O. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of prompt response to emergency repairs, particularly for plumbing, heating, and appliance issues, though some routine maintenance matters have required multiple complaints before resolution.
