2899 Kingsbridge Terrace, Bronx, NY 10463

The 6-story, 83-unit residential building at 2899 Kingsbridge Terrace, owned by Ved Parkash, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years, particularly related to heat and hot water systems. From late 2024 into mid-2025, there have been multiple complaints about heat and hot water problems, affecting both entire building and individual apartments, with some complaints going uninspected due to access issues. The building has also faced ongoing issues with building systems and safety equipment, including multiple complaints about appliances (gas ranges, refrigeration), unsanitary conditions including mold, and various building systems such as flooring, plumbing, and door functionality.

Notably, several apartments were cited in October 2024 for issues with carbon monoxide detectors and smoke alarms, though these violations were marked as closed after certification of repairs. The building has a documented history of rat activity, with inspections showing inconsistent compliance results between 2021 and 2025. There have been two recent bedbug incidents reported in 2024 and 2023, though all identified units were marked as eradicated.

Department of Buildings inspections from 2024-2023 revealed various issues requiring attention, including fire escape access concerns, unsafe conditions requiring immediate correction, and elevator system irregularities. A recent Environmental Control Board violation from July 2023 remains active, related to the failure to file an acceptable condition assessment, with an associated penalty of $1,250. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of inadequate response to some issues, as evidenced by multiple complaints requiring tenants to refile concerns when access was not granted during inspections, though there are also records of issues being addressed and resolved through proper channels.
