4829 White Plains Road, Bronx, NY 10470

The five-story, 10-unit building at 4829 White Plains Road in Wakefield, owned by Shimshon Grunstein, was constructed in 2022 and has experienced several significant maintenance issues since opening. Most recently, in March 2025, there were emergency complaints regarding both pest infestations and mold issues, though HPD reported these conditions were corrected according to the building's contact person.

Prior to this, from late 2024 into mid-2025, there were unresolved issues relating to paint/plaster on walls and plumbing problems with a basin/sink, with HPD unable to complete inspections of these complaints. The building also experienced emergency heat/hot water issues in late 2024, all of which have since been closed. Looking at the building's historical documentation, there was a period in 2022 when a stop work order was issued but subsequently rescinded in May of that year.

While there have been some complaints filed with the Department of Buildings regarding permits and a sweep, inspections determined no violations warranted action. Encouragingly, the bedbug report for the period of November 2023 to October 2024 shows no infestation cases, with zero units affected or requiring eradication. Despite the notable maintenance issues, particularly regarding unsanitary conditions and plumbing concerns, the building has generally seen these complaints resolved through proper channels, though some initial inspection challenges were encountered.
