950 Underhill Avenue, Bronx, NY 10473

950 Underhill Avenue is a 21-story, 209-unit residential tower built in 1966 and currently managed by Stellar Bruckner LLC. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns including multiple instances of pest infestations, mold, and unsanitary conditions. Most notably, there have been several recent complaints about pests (including rodent activity), with the most recent being documented as an emergency situation in May 2025.

The building has also faced infrastructure challenges, as evidenced by multiple heat/hot water complaints and plumbing issues between February and May 2025, along with documented water leaks in March 2025. Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2024 identified problems with self-closing doors, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and ventilation systems in specific apartments, though some of these violations have since been closed. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent issues with building systems and compliance requirements.

Approximately 98% of the complaints filed between 2024 and 2025 have been resolved, though several violations remain open, including those related to the FISP Cycle 9B technical report and the elevator system. There have been multiple complaints regarding construction safety compliance and scaffolding between 2023 and 2025, with some leading to Environmental Control Board violations and associated penalties. Despite these ongoing challenges, the property has demonstrated some level of responsiveness to maintenance requests, as evidenced by the closure of numerous service requests following inspection and correction procedures. The building's management has taken steps to address various health and safety concerns, though the pattern of recurring issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges in certain areas, particularly regarding heating systems, pest control, and building infrastructure.
