Pelham Parkway in the Bronx is a street that has seen better days, reflected in its overall grade of 'F'. Residents here face a myriad of challenges, with the most pressing being the deplorable street conditions. Potholes are a constant hazard, numbering over 140 reported incidents, making it difficult and dangerous to navigate the street, especially for cyclists and those with mobility issues. The street's surface is a patchwork of repairs, a testament to the city's ongoing struggle to maintain it adequately.

Noise pollution is another significant issue, with both loud music and parties, as well as banging and pounding, reported frequently. These disturbances can make it challenging for residents to enjoy their homes, especially during late-night hours. The noise complaints, totaling over 20, suggest that this is a persistent problem that requires more aggressive enforcement. Additionally, illegal parking is a common occurrence, with over 16 complaints, likely exacerbated by limited parking spaces in the area.

The street's infrastructure also presents problems. Heat and hot water issues have been reported over 60 times, indicating that many residents may be living in uncomfortable or even unsafe conditions during cold weather. Unsanitary conditions, pests, and water leaks further contribute to the poor living standards. Moreover, several residents have reported issues with their buildings' entire structures, floors, and walls, suggesting that many properties on Pelham Parkway may be in a state of disrepair.

Despite these challenges, Pelham Parkway is not without its redeeming features. It is located near the Bronx Zoo and Pelham Bay Park, offering residents access to green spaces and recreational activities. However, the street's high crime rate, with one reported felony, underscores the need for improved safety measures and community engagement. The surrounding streets, such as Lurting Avenue and Hone Avenue, also have poor grades, indicating that Pelham Parkway is part of a larger neighborhood in need of attention and investment.
