311 Alexander Avenue, Bronx, NY 10454

311 Alexander Avenue is a 4-story, 9-unit Old Law Tenement building built in 1906, currently owned by Edgar Saavedra. The property is currently facing multiple unresolved issues as of April 2025, with open complaints regarding unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions and door-related problems. These recent complaints follow a pattern of similar issues, with five garbage storage complaints documented between March and April 2025, and earlier violations noted in September 2023.

The building has experienced heat/hot water issues affecting the entire building in November 2024, though these were resolved within two days. A significant cluster of code violations was documented in September 2023, primarily affecting the first-floor laundry room, including problems with mold (approximately 8 square feet), pest infestation (specifically cockroaches), and various maintenance issues such as damaged fire retardant materials and the need for cleaning up refuse. As of 2024-2025, the building appears to have maintained a bedbug-free status over multiple reporting periods, with consistent reports showing zero infested units.

Historical records show the building has successfully passed multiple rodent inspections between 2010 and 2023. There is one open Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding an external low pressure inspection that was not filed in 2018. While the property has experienced various maintenance issues, the frequent resolution of complaints and passing of rodent inspections suggest ongoing attention to building upkeep, though the recent cluster of open complaints indicates some persistent challenges requiring attention.
