3435 Giles Place, Bronx, NY 10463

The 67-unit, 6-story building at 3435 Giles Place in Kingsbridge, owned by Ved Parkash and constructed in 1959, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues over the past two years (2024-2025). Most recently, in May 2025, the building received multiple housing code violations including broken/missing window guards, missing signage, and repeated issues with garbage/recycling storage. A heat and hot water emergency affecting the entire building was reported and subsequently resolved in May 2025, while there were also complaints regarding damaged walls and appliances (refrigerator and stove) for which inspections were attempted but not completed.

The property has a notable history of elevator-related complaints, with multiple reports of "Single Device on Property/No Alternate Service" between late 2023 and early 2025, though inspections often found no violations. In 2024, violations were documented for apartments 5E and 7K concerning mold and hot water temperatures, respectively. The building has also faced infrastructure challenges, particularly related to rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025 consistently indicating rat presence.

Structural and safety concerns have been documented through various violations, including issues with fire safety systems, boiler maintenance, and building facade conditions. The property's bedbug reporting from 2018-2024 shows minimal activity, with only one reported infestation in 2018 that was resolved. There have been multiple environmental control board violations regarding elevator safety and building maintenance, though most have been resolved. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services and building upkeep, with particular attention needed to address recurring issues such as garbage management and elevator service reliability.
