2845 University Avenue, Bronx, NY 10468

The six-story, 61-unit building at 2845 University Avenue in Kingsbridge, owned by Rosette Moskowitz, has faced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most notably, there has been a recurring pattern of plumbing problems, with multiple water supply complaints documented in May 2025, as well as issues with bathtubs, showers, toilets, and sinks between February and June 2025.

The building has experienced heat and hot water problems, affecting both individual apartments and common areas, with complaints in February and March 2025. Apartment 2H was found to have serious maintenance issues in a December 2024 inspection, including mold problems, pest infestation, and multiple housing maintenance code violations related to walls, ceilings, and heating systems. The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints about the single device on property and no alternate service between 2018 and 2021, resulting in violations and fines.

Recent rodent inspections show a mixed record of compliance, with rat activity noted in 2024 and earlier years, though a passing result was recorded in April 2025. The building's environmental control board violations reveal ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding elevator safety systems and emergency service response. While there have been no reports of bedbug infestations in the past five years, and the most recent rodent inspection resulted in a passing grade, the building has experienced consistent issues with basic services and maintenance, as evidenced by the frequent 311 service requests and housing maintenance code violations.
