3394 3rd Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The three-story, two-family house at 3394 3rd Avenue in Morrisania, built in 1901 and currently owned by 3394 3rd Avenue LLC, has experienced multiple recurring maintenance issues between 2022 and 2025. The most significant ongoing concerns are related to heat and hot water availability, with seven emergency complaints recorded between February 2024 and November 2024, though conditions were often reportedly restored or could not be verified during HPD inspections.

The building has faced persistent pest control challenges, particularly involving rodent infestations, as evidenced by multiple violations issued in 2024 and numerous rodent activity reports between 2022 and 2023, despite bait application efforts. Recently, in April 2025, complaints were filed regarding wall conditions and pests, though inspections resulted in no violations for the former and an inconclusive inspection for the latter.

The property has experienced some structural and environmental challenges, including a notable incident in October 2021 when a retaining wall collapse from an adjacent property affected the building's rear yard area, leading to a "Non-Compliance" designation from the Department of Buildings. Multiple building code violations remain open as of 2025, particularly concerning Apartment 2, including issues with peeling paint, water leaks, and rodent infestations that require attention according to housing maintenance codes. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic infrastructure and pest management, with some violations dating back to 2022-2024 remaining unresolved as of the most recent data, though there have been periods of successful remediation for certain issues as documented in inspection reports.
