2131 Bruckner Boulevard, Bronx, NY 10472

2131 Bruckner Boulevard is a two-story, four-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1929, currently owned by Dominique Vabre. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in 2025, with multiple emergency complaints related to heat/hot water systems and electrical outages, though some of these were promptly resolved. Notable ongoing concerns include an open plumbing issue concerning toilet facilities as of April 2025.

The building has a documented history of pest-related problems, with violations recorded in 2022 and 2023, including active infestations of mice and roaches in apartment 1B. There are also several open violations from 2022 in apartment 1B involving safety concerns, including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, missing window guards, and a problematic waste line at the bathtub. The building's infrastructure has shown persistent challenges, with multiple complaints about heat/hot water systems (including in 2025), and a sequence of plumbing and electrical issues.

While some violations and complaints have been addressed, such as the resolution of water leak and insect infestation complaints, new issues continue to arise. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2022 through 2025, showing no recorded infestations during the reporting periods. Rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with recurring rat activity documented between 2014 and 2018, though more recent inspections in 2022 passed without issue. An illegal conversion complaint was investigated in 2024, but the inspector was unable to gain access for verification.
