3302 3rd Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The 4-story residential building at 3302 3rd Avenue in Longwood, owned by Jeff Mustafaj, has experienced notable maintenance challenges since its construction in 2006. Most significantly, in March 2024, multiple serious issues were documented, including emergency-level problems with carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, water supply plumbing failures, and mold concerns.

Three specific complaints were made regarding pest infestations, particularly in the 3rd-floor apartment, while additional complaints were filed about the building's water supply and door issues. The building also has an open Class A violation related to annual bedbug reporting requirements, and various open Class B and C violations concerning safety systems, plumbing, and pest control. Looking at the building's history, there have been recurring safety system concerns, with prior violations documented in 2021 related to non-functioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, as well as issues with interior ceilings requiring attention.

The property has undergone multiple rodent inspections between 2010 and 2022, all of which passed, suggesting some stability in pest management prior to the recent complaints. A bedbug report filed in 2021 indicated no active infestations during the reporting period. While the building's structure appears generally sound (as evidenced by plumbing complaints receiving "No Violation Warranted" status when inspected in 2020), the recent pattern of violations and service requests, particularly regarding safety systems and water-related issues, indicates ongoing maintenance challenges that require monitoring.
