The Parkchester Watch Group has started a Letter Writing Campaign to state agencies, government officials, and Public Advocates. We are hoping you will join the Letter Writing Campaign. We hope your participation in this Letter Writing Campaign will help address and improve the quality of life issues residents of the Parkchester North and South Condominium community are dealing with.
Please see below the USPS mailing addresses, emails, and links where you can submit your letter. Additionally, please see the SAMPLE language for your use. Please feel free to use your own language.
Sample Language:
I am a resident of the Parkchester Condominium community located in the Bronx, NY. I am reaching out to you to receive guidance and assistance addressing quality of life issues residents of Parkchester North and South Condominiums are facing. Residents living in the North and South Condominiums have contacted management to address the quality of life issues that exist in our community.
Below is a list of major ongoing quality-of-life issues:
Non-functioning elevators in several buildings, impacting all residents, including tenants with mobility issues, senior citizens, and tenants using wheelchairs and walkers.
Inoperable elevators in all commercial parking facilities, impacting residents especially those with mobility issues.
Heat Issues: boiler malfunctions multiple times throughout the winter, leaving tenants without heat for multiple days.
Garbage Disposal: producing hazardous conditions/fire hazards due to poor trash management, which attracts vermin.
Lack of Repairs/Maintenance in apartments and public areas of the complex.
Lack of transparency: Owners have no direct access to privately contact elected condominium board members.
Lack of fiscal responsibility: Outstanding complaints filed by residents resulting in massive fines. Fines can be viewed on the DOB and HPD sites.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
