1224 Tinton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The 2-story, 3-unit building at 1224 Tinton Avenue in Morrisania, owned by Marcia Zhagnay and constructed in 1910, has experienced several significant events over the past years that merit attention. Most recently, there were bedbug reporting violations in 2021-2023, which have since been corrected as per the April 2025 filing showing no infested units during the 2024 reporting period.

Between 2018-2020, the building faced multiple serious issues, including fire damage affecting two units (Basement-Apartment 1 and 1st Story Apartment 2) in January 2018, as well as problems with an oil boiler and a leaking water main in the cellar. Two notable concerns from 2018 remain open: a violation regarding accumulation of refuse in the rear yard and encumbrances in the south fire passageway.

The building has undergone several rodent inspections between 2017-2022, with initial failures and successful bait applications recorded during this period, though the most recent 2022 inspection passed. The property has an unusual pattern of inspection access issues, with three different complaints about unauthorized work in 2019-2020 being marked as closed due to "Inspector Unable To Gain Access – 2nd Final Attempt." Window guard safety violations were documented in 2019 affecting Apartment 3, though this violation was subsequently closed. The building has maintained compliance with rodent control requirements after initial issues in 2017-2018, and the bedbug reporting violations from previous years have been resolved as evidenced by the 2025 filings showing no active infestations or eradication efforts in progress.
