943 Croes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10473

943 Croes Avenue is a 4-story, 7-unit residential building constructed in 2004 located in the Soundview neighborhood, currently owned by Joseph Pareres. The building has experienced recurring pest issues, with multiple pest-related complaints in 2024 including two unsanitary condition complaints specifically about pests in November 2024 and July 2024, along with confirmed violations in Apartment 1A for mouse and roach infestations in both July and November 2024. Other notable maintenance concerns have included door/window issues in September 2024 (emergency complaint), heat/hot water problems in December 2023 and January 2021 (both treated as emergencies), and various paint/plaster issues.

In 2018, the building faced several maintenance concerns including electrical outlet/switch problems, paint/plaster issues, and unsanitary conditions relating to mold, though not all resulted in violations. The building's recent history indicates some ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding pest control and building security. In 2024, there were multiple violations regarding building entrance door security that were subsequently addressed, including repairs to self-closing doors and lock mechanisms.

The property has maintained a clean bedbug record, with zero reported infestations in the past five years according to the annual bedbug reporting requirements. Additionally, the building has passed rodent inspections in both 2010 and 2017. A complaint regarding illegal conversion was filed in 2020 but was closed in 2021 when the inspector was unable to gain access for verification. Overall, while the building has seen consistent attention to maintenance and compliance issues, many problems have been addressed through proper channels, though the recurring nature of some complaints, particularly regarding pests, is notable.
