2696 Marion Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The three-unit, three-story residential building at 2696 Marion Avenue in Fordham, owned by Lelta Jarrett, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years. The most recent incident, in December 2023, involved an emergency heat and hot water complaint that was promptly addressed by HPD.

The building has a documented history of heat and hot water problems, with similar complaints recorded in March 2021 and December 2020, indicating this may be an ongoing infrastructure issue. Between late 2020 and early 2021, multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions, including mold and pest infestations, though inspectors were frequently unable to gain access to verify these conditions. Additional maintenance issues were reported during 2021-2023, including problems with appliances such as the refrigerator and electric/gas range.

The building's regulatory history shows several significant compliance checks in 2019, including inspections for illegal hotel rooms and conversions, as well as a professional certification compliance audit by the Department of Buildings. While violations were noted for some complaints, particularly during inspections that required multiple access attempts, the most recent building inspection results are not available in the provided data. The concentration of complaints regarding heat/hot water issues, mold, pests, and appliance problems suggests persistent maintenance challenges, though many of these issues were addressed through HPD interventions.
