1966 Newbold Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472
The 14-story, 139-unit residential building at 1966 Newbold Avenue in Unionport, built in 1967, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years, particularly regarding pest control and building systems. The property has documented recurring issues with pests, including a current open violation from April 2024 for mice infestation in apartment 502, and previous instances of roach infestations in apartments 401 and 502. Comprehensive pest control efforts have been implemented, as evidenced by the most recent bedbug report (December 2024) showing 6 infested units, though all were eventually treated.
Building systems have required attention, with multiple complaints in early 2024 regarding heat/hot water and water supply issues, though inspections did not warrant violations. The building has also faced security and structural concerns, particularly regarding the vestibule door system. A cluster of violations from February 2024 identified issues with an illegal electromagnetic lock system that compromised building security during power outages.
Additionally, housing maintenance code violations from October 2023 point to ongoing concerns with interior maintenance, such as defective plaster and water leaks in apartment 502. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections (October 2023), historical data shows a pattern of rodent activity and pest problems, including a failed inspection in 2021. The property has had multiple 311 complaints and housing maintenance code complaints relating to unsanitary conditions, including mold and plumbing issues, though most have been closed without violations being issued. A recent inspection under Local Law 188/17 in April 2025 found no violations, and previous complaints regarding gas and work without permits were closed without findings of violations.
