2550 Marion Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The 6-story, 36-unit residential building at 2550 Marion Avenue in Fordham, owned by Martin Vuksanaj, has been in operation since 1940 and has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in 2025, there are ongoing concerns with construction lead dust in common areas and multiple open complaints regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions. The building has faced periodic heat and hot water service disruptions, with complaints documented in 2020, 2022, and 2024, though these were ultimately resolved.

Notable safety violations include an open violation from 2021 regarding a missing smoke detector in Apartment 5B and a historical issue with the bell/buzzer/intercom system that has required multiple repairs and inspections in 2021 and 2024. The property has been proactive in addressing pest control measures, with the past six bedbug reports (2019-2025) showing zero infested units. All recent rodent inspections between 2019 and 2025 have passed, indicating effective pest management.

Building infrastructure issues have been documented, including a 2022 door/window inspection revealing multiple problems requiring attention (e.g., door and window repairs). The Department of Buildings has issued various violations over the years, with the most recent being related to the failure to file the 2022 external low-pressure inspection (April 2023) and unresolved elevator maintenance issues from 2019. The building's management has generally responded to violations and complaints, as evidenced by multiple cases being marked as "closed" after repairs or interventions, though some issues, like the recent garbage storage complaints and the smoke detector violation, remain open as of 2025.
