2881 Philip Avenue, Bronx, NY 10465
The 5-unit, 2-story building at 2881 Philip Avenue in Throgs Neck, owned by Gjekote Curanaj, has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years. Most recently, in April 2025, the property had multiple complaints including window frame issues (with violations issued), plumbing problems, and indoor air quality concerns, though no violations were issued for the latter two. The building has a troubling history of heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints in late 2024 through early 2025, including three separate complaints between November and December 2024.
These heat/hot water problems and window frame violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The building has undergone several inspections and faced multiple violations over the years. In 2024-2025, there were issues related to bedbug reporting compliance (with violations issued) and unauthorized cellar modifications including bathroom construction and electrical work in 2020, though these were eventually resolved.
A significant number of emergency complaints were made between 2024 and 2025 regarding heat/hot water issues, indicating potential systemic problems with the building's infrastructure. The most recent bedbug reports (2022-2024) show no infestation history, and a rodent inspection in 2019 resulted in a passing grade. While some maintenance issues have been resolved, including various violations related to paint, doors, and windows (specifically in apartment 2R), the recurrence of heat/hot water problems and recent violations suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
