1332 College Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456

The two-family house at 1332 College Avenue in Claremont Village, owned by Erinn Thomasmackey, has demonstrated persistent maintenance challenges since 2024, with multiple housing code violations and service complaints recorded. The property has been experiencing ongoing issues with heat and hot water, particularly noted across four separate complaints in January 2025, including one building-wide defect that resulted in violations being issued.

There are also significant concerns regarding Apartment 2, including reported rodent infestations (mice and roaches), plumbing issues (sink waste line connection problem), and various appliance failures. Housing Maintenance Code violations from December 2024 and April 2024 indicate problems with carbon monoxide detectors, radiator covers, bathroom floor tiles, and roof leaks affecting the kitchen ceiling. The building's recent inspection history shows fluctuating rodent activity, with inspections in 2024 and 2023 showing both passed and failed results.

A discovery of unauthorized modifications to create a basement apartment in 2020 led to multiple Illegal Conversion complaints and resulting penalties, including a $2,500 fine related to converting the residence from two to three families. While there have been numerous HPD inspections following tenant complaints, many of these inspections were not completed due to access issues, though some resulted in verified violations that required correction within specified timeframes. The property has also accumulated several maintenance code violations regarding peeling paint, unsanitary conditions, and problems with various appliances in recent months, particularly affecting the second-floor unit.
