Steve, a team member at MyBronxLawyer, breaks it down. This video explains what to do after an injury in or around Parkchester — whether you were hurt inside an apartment building, slipped near the retail area, or got hit by a car near White Plains Road or Metropolitan Oval.
What makes Parkchester accident cases more complex?
Parkchester isn’t run by the City — it’s a privately owned development with residential buildings, walkways, retail areas, and shared parking. That means liability can shift between multiple parties: the property owner, a commercial tenant, or a maintenance company. We pinpoint who was responsible and hold them accountable.
“I slipped on wet stairs near Macy’s — no signs, no cones. Steve’s team showed me how that area wasn’t City-owned. They tracked down who controlled the property and filed right away.” — J.L., Parkchester

Hallways and stairwells inside Parkchester buildings have caused injuries from water leaks, poor lighting, and missing handrails.

These cases may sound small, but they often lead to medical bills, time off work, and lasting pain. If something similar happened to you, write down the details while they’re still fresh.
Here are a few examples of results we’ve helped secure for Bronx residents after injuries in and around Parkchester.
Client slipped at the entrance to a retail store after rain. No mat or signage was placed. Surveillance footage helped confirm fault.
A hallway light was out for weeks. Our client fell in the dark stairwell, breaking her ankle. Maintenance logs showed prior complaints.

📍 CityMD Parkchester location at 731 White Plains Rd — most Parkchester clients start here after a fall or fender bender.
🗺️ Located near the 6 train Parkchester station — right between Starbucks and Capital One.

👉 See how urgent care visits impact your caseThese are the most common questions Bronx residents ask after being injured in Parkchester — especially in apartment buildings, stores, or nearby intersections.
If you were injured in a Parkchester building or common area, contact either Parkchester North (718-320-6000) or South (718-518-1000) management, depending on the property. For accidents inside stores or restaurants, ask the manager for an incident report on-site.
Not always. If the injury happened in a retail store, parking lot, or public street, responsibility may fall on the business owner or the City of New York. It depends on the exact location and who was supposed to maintain it.
Many Parkchester clients don’t feel pain until later. Even if you waited a day or two, visiting a nearby clinic like CityMD on White Plains Rd can still create a helpful medical record tied to your injury.
A witness isn’t required, but documentation is. Take photos, write down what happened, and report the incident to management or the store. Security footage or maintenance records may later support your claim.
Most Bronx injury claims have a 3-year limit. But if your case involves a city-owned sidewalk, bus stop, or government vehicle, you may have only 90 days to file a Notice of Claim. It’s best to confirm this early.
If you were hurt in or around Parkchester, these local links can help you figure out who’s responsible and where to get help.
Accidents in Parkchester can involve multiple parties. Whether you slipped inside a store or got hit near a busy intersection, we look closely at who's legally responsible — and make sure the right party is held accountable. Here’s where we start.
