4568 Manhattan College Py, Bronx, NY 10471

The 6-story, 61-unit building located at 4568 Manhattan College Parkway in Kingsbridge has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues over the past few years, with the most significant problems occurring in 2025. Multiple complaints about heat and hot water outages affected the entire building during March-April 2025, along with issues related to water leaks and pests. The building is also facing persistent rodent problems, as evidenced by rat activity reported during inspections in late 2024 and early 2025. In December 2024, the property underwent inspections revealing several maintenance violations in Apartment 4A, including issues with windows, electrical outlets, plumbing fixtures, and a documented rodent infestation.

The building has a history of structural concerns, with complaints about building shaking and vibration recorded in 2020 and 2022, though inspections in these instances found no violations. Notably, there are active Environmental Control Board violations from 2022 related to fire escape obstructions and facade disrepair, while other citations regarding building maintenance and compliance have been resolved or dismissed. The property has previously faced bedbug infestations, with the highest count of affected units (16) reported in 2019, though recent filings from 2020-2024 show no infestations. The building's documented issues extend beyond immediate tenant concerns, with structural and safety matters repeatedly brought to attention through various complaint channels.

These include problems with building drainage (2024), facade conditions (2022), and multiple emergency violations related to heat and water systems. While many of these complaints have been closed through inspections, the pattern of recurring maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges for building management. The property has a history of not allowing inspections during complaint investigations, as evidenced in multiple incidents where inspectors were unable to access units to verify reported conditions. Additionally, the building has undergone various permitted repairs and work orders between 2019-2021, though specific details on these improvements are not provided in the data. The persistent nature of these issues and the number of different categories of complaints suggest ongoing management challenges, though many recent complaints have been inspected and closed without violations being found.
