1517 Parker Street, Bronx, NY 10462

1517 Parker Street is a 5-story, 9-unit residential building constructed in 2003 and currently owned by Anthony Derosa. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in 2023-2025, with several non-emergency violations documented through HPD inspections and service requests. Most recently, in March 2025, there were multiple complaints requiring inspection, including issues with flooring, plumbing (bathtub/shower), cabinets, appliances (refrigerator), and a water leak, though not all resulted in violations.

Two significant patterns emerge: ongoing concerns with plumbing and bathroom fixtures, particularly affecting apartment 2B, and issues with flooring in multiple units. Previous violations from late 2023 show multiple problems in 2B, including mold, broken floorboards, and defective safety equipment (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors). The building's history shows some consistent maintenance challenges, particularly involving water-related issues and mold, with three separate mold-related complaints recorded between 2023-2025.

Structural and safety systems have also required attention, as evidenced by violations related to ventilation systems and safety equipment in both apartments 1A and 2B. The property has maintained a clean record regarding pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the last six years (2020-2025), and passed its most recent rodent inspection in February 2019. While the building has not experienced major catastrophic issues, the frequency and variety of maintenance complaints suggest a pattern of ongoing maintenance challenges that should be monitored.
