2913B Cruger Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The 4-unit, 4-story residential building at 2913B Cruger Avenue in Allerton, owned by Aleksander Lakaj, has experienced numerous maintenance issues since its construction in 2012, with the most significant problems occurring in 2024-2025. Recent complaints primarily involve appliance issues, specifically electric/gas range problems, with three similar complaints filed in February 2025 alone.

The building has also faced multiple plumbing challenges, including water leaks (both slow and heavy flow), issues with sinks and basins, and multiple electrical problems such as malfunctioning outlets and lighting. More concerning is the pattern of boiler-related complaints in late 2024-early 2025, suggesting potential heating system reliability concerns, though these complaints are marked as "Closed" in the records. The property has several active violations from 2019 that appear unresolved, including one related to obstructed egress at the cellar door, with associated penalties totaling $18,750.

Other notable issues include pest control concerns (particularly regarding roach infestation) and various housing code violations related to paint conditions, door functionality, and water leaks in Apartment 1. While there have been passing rodent inspections in recent years, the building's overall maintenance record shows recurring patterns of violations and complaints, particularly regarding basic infrastructure elements like heating, plumbing, and electrical systems. The most recent inspections and interventions have primarily been reactive responses to tenant complaints rather than proactive maintenance, with multiple instances where inspections were either incomplete or resulted in violations requiring correction.
