2125 Virgil Place, Bronx, NY 10473

The two-family house at 2125 Virgil Place in Castle Hill, owned by Marceline Torres, has a documented history dating back to 2010, when it passed a rodent inspection. The building, constructed in 1930, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, most notably in November 2018 and January 2022.

The 2018 incident was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) but resulted in no violations, while the 2022 complaint was closed without inspection due to access issues. In June 2023, a mosquito complaint was filed with the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene regarding a large number of mosquitoes, though this was addressed through the city's tracking system without specific follow-up information.

A significant safety concern was documented in January 2018, when the Department of Buildings issued a violation for unsafe electrical practices, specifically regarding the use of extension cords as permanent wiring for kitchen appliances, including the refrigerator and stove. This violation, for which an $800 penalty was imposed, has been marked as resolved, though the records do not specify the nature of the resolution. While the building is classified as a two-family house and has only two documented housing maintenance complaints over the past eleven years, the recurring nature of the heat and hot water issues, along with the electrical safety violation, represent the most significant concerns in its recent history.
