943 Sheridan Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The 8-unit, 4-story tenement building at 943 Sheridan Avenue, owned by Humberto Camacho and built in 1910, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent months. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building throughout early 2025, with emergency complaints filed in March, April, and May of that year. Recent service requests from June 2025 indicate issues with mold and flooring conditions that HPD was unable to inspect properly.

The building has also faced safety and sanitation concerns, including problems with garbage/recycling storage and an emergency fire escape issue in May 2025 for which inspections could not be completed. The property had various violations and maintenance issues documented between 2022-2024, particularly in Apartment 2, which was found to have multiple problems in October 2023, including pest infestation, defective doors and plumbing, and non-functioning safety equipment (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors). Additionally, there have been concerning patterns of low-pressure boiler inspection violations, with active violations noted from April 2023 through June 2023 for failure to file required inspection reports.

Though there were two bedbug reports filed in 2023-2024, both indicated no infestations, and recent rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with some failures for "Other Reasons" in early 2025, though previous years showed consistent passing results. The building's inspection history reveals ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with building systems and sanitation, through 2025. While some violations have been closed through proper remediation, the frequency and nature of recent complaints suggest persistent building maintenance issues. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting history and undergone regular rodent inspections, with varying results.
