3479 Fort Independence Street is a 5-story, 27-unit residential building constructed in 2006, currently owned by Richard Sica. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly in the past two years. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints in early 2025, with tenants reporting insufficient service.
October 2024 brought multiple violations in Apartment 4A related to sanitary conditions, including pest infestation, mold, plumbing issues, and problems with safety equipment. The building has also faced door-related issues, with multiple complaints in 2023-2024 regarding door functionality, including a significant incident in November 2023. More recent concerns include a pest-related complaint filed in May 2025, though inspectors could not access the unit for verification.
The property has documented some infrastructural maintenance challenges, with violations issued in October 2024 regarding water leaks and plumbing problems. On the regulatory side, there are active DOB issues regarding energy efficiency reporting requirements from 2021, while a previous violation from 2022 regarding benchmarking was dismissed after confirmation of compliance. Despite these challenges, it's worth noting that the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs over the past eight reporting periods (2018-2025) and has passed multiple rodent inspections from 2013 through 2022. The situation in Apartment 4A requires particular attention, as it has multiple open violations related to safety, sanitation, and maintenance that require correction according to housing maintenance codes.
