1116 Sherman Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

1116 Sherman Avenue is a 2-family, 2-story residential building located in Concourse Village, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Arsen Yakubov. The property has experienced recurring pest control challenges, with multiple rodent-related complaints and inspections between 2021 and 2023, including a recent rat sighting in October 2023 that resulted in violations requiring follow-up inspections by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

A pattern of construction-related issues emerged between 2021-2024, with numerous Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and violations, particularly during 2022, when violations were documented regarding construction safety compliance, inadequate housekeeping, and problems with the construction fence. The building underwent several construction phases between 2020-2023, as evidenced by multiple permit issuances, including three active permits issued in December 2023. The property's environmental control board violations from 2022-2023 indicate notable safety concerns during construction periods, though these have since been resolved.

While recent rodent inspections in 2025 marked a passing result, previous inspections showed mixed outcomes, including instances of rat activity and failed inspections for other reasons between 2023-2024. Notably, the building has maintained a bedbug-free status in the most recent reporting period (2023-2024), with no reported infestations or re-infestations. The property's inspection history shows regular monitoring and some improvements in maintenance and compliance, though the recurring nature of rodent complaints and construction-related issues suggests ongoing challenges in these areas.
