1226 Sherman Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
The 6-story, 61-unit tenement building at 1226 Sherman Avenue, owned by 1226 Sherman Ave Bronx LLC and constructed in 1927, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring issues with the heating system (multiple complaints throughout late 2024 and early 2025) and persistent plumbing problems, including multiple toilet and bathtub/shower issues as recent as 2025. December 2024 revealed substantial problems in apartment 30, with violations for pest infestations (both mice and roaches), water damage, mold, and flooring issues.
The building has also faced elevator service disruptions, with multiple complaints recorded between 2021-2023 regarding its single-device system and lack of alternate service, though recent inspections between 2022-2023 found no violations at that time. The property's environmental control board violations from 2022-2023 indicate serious elevator and boiler system deficiencies, including improper fire safety installations and a currently active flue pipe violation from 2023. Additionally, there is a concerning pattern of rodent activity, with multiple compliance inspections throughout 2024-2025 confirming the presence of rats and requiring bait application.
While the building's bedbug reports from 2019-2024 show periods of infestation, the most recent three years (2021-2024) indicate no current infestations. Recent housing maintenance code violations include open issues from April 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions in garbage/recycling storage areas. The building's history shows periodic maintenance attention to various issues, but many problems appear to be recurring rather than resolved permanently.
