130 West 183rd Street, Bronx, NY 10453

The 6-story, 48-unit apartment building at 130 West 183rd Street in University Heights, constructed in 1939 and currently owned by Prec Gjonaj, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent months. Most notably, there has been an ongoing pattern of heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed between March and April 2025, some of which have resulted in violations and require further investigation. The building has also faced multiple housing quality concerns, including water leaks, wall maintenance issues, and an active pest control violation for apartment 2G related to mice and roaches as of December 2024.

The property underwent various inspections throughout 2024-2025, with several violations recorded including missing internet-capable temperature reporting devices in apartments 2C and 3B, and multiple work orders related to plumbing and water systems. The building's infrastructure has shown some concerning patterns, particularly regarding the elevator system with multiple complaints in 2023-2024, and boiler-related inspections in 2022. Recent environmental control board violations from 2024 included issues with building exterior maintenance and safety compliance during scaffolding work.

However, on a more positive note, the building has maintained a clean record for bedbug infestations since 2019, and recent rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passed without significant findings. The property has undergone regular tenant safety inspections, with most showing no violations or achieving compliance within reasonable timeframes. While the building has experienced various maintenance challenges, particularly regarding heating systems and pest control, many of these issues have been addressed through the complaint and violation process, though some recent complaints remain unresolved as of mid-2025.
