1814 Clinton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

The 3-story, 3-unit building at 1814 Clinton Avenue in Tremont, owned by Maurice Maynard and constructed in 1901, has experienced significant maintenance challenges over the past three years, with persistent rodent issues being the most prominent concern. Most recently, in May 2023, a rat sighting was reported, prompting Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) investigations that found violations requiring follow-up inspections.

The building has been subject to multiple rodent inspections and baiting treatments throughout 2024-2025, including three bait application treatments in April 2024, though the most recent inspections in early 2025 resulted in passed inspections. In addition to rodent problems, the property has faced various maintenance issues, particularly concentrated in Apartment 2. During a comprehensive inspection in June 2022, multiple violations were documented, including problems with self-closing doors, bathroom fixtures, and pest infestations (specifically roaches and mice).

The violations also noted issues with security features such as door locks and the carbon monoxide detecting devices. The building received additional violations related to bedbug reporting requirements in 2023 and 2024, though these appear to be administrative in nature. While some individual complaints, such as those related to lighting, various plumbing issues, and appliance concerns, have been resolved with no violations found, the recurring nature of pest-related problems suggests ongoing maintenance challenges have persisted through 2025.
