3985 Saxon Avenue, Bronx, NY 10463

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 3985 Saxon Avenue in Kingsbridge, owned by Adiel Perez, has a mixed history since its 1920 construction. Most notably, there have been several significant events in recent years, particularly in 2023, including multiple complaints about unauthorized work, debris concerns, and safety issues relating to scaffolding and fencing, though inspections generally found no violations.

The building experienced heat and water issues in late 2018, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development unable to access units to verify the complaints. Violations related to annual bedbug reporting requirements were issued in 2021-2023, though the most recent 2024 bedbug report indicates no infestation issues during the 2022-2023 filing period. The property has undergone some construction activity that raised concerns among residents, with multiple "work without a permit" complaints filed between 2022-2023, one resulting in a $1,250 penalty (subsequently resolved), and an Environmental Control Board violation in 2023 regarding job site access.

However, inspections in response to these complaints typically found no violations at the time of inspection. Historical rodent inspections from 2013-2019 have consistently passed, suggesting good pest management. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues and regulatory compliance matters over the years, including heating and plumbing concerns in 2018 and construction-related complaints in recent years, many of these issues appear to have been addressed promptly, with most violations being closed and no current open violations on record as of March 2023.
