1250 Elder Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The 2-family house at 1250 Elder Avenue in Parkchester, owned by Joslyn Burton, has a history dating back to 1930, comprising two stories and three units. The building experienced a cluster of emergency maintenance issues in mid to late 2018, with complaints regarding heat and hot water problems, pest infestations, and carbon monoxide detector safety concerns.

These incidents between July and October 2018 were officially documented through both 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code Complaints, with some inspections reportedly unable to gain access to verify conditions. These issues were eventually closed, though there was notation of unverified open conditions regarding the heat and hot water problems.

In terms of ongoing building maintenance and safety, the property has shown consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all ten inspections conducted between 2016 and 2025. The most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 continues this trend of compliance, as do all previous inspections from 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019, indicating effective pest management and building maintenance since the 2018 issues. The regularity and consistent passing of these inspections suggest that while the building experienced significant issues in 2018, the current maintenance of the property over the past several years has shown marked improvement in terms of both pest control and overall building safety compliance.
