3050 Bainbridge Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The five-story, 44-unit residential building at 3050 Bainbridge Avenue in Norwood, built in 1922, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most prominently, between July 2024 and March 2025, the building faced multiple safety concerns including violations related to smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector requirements, as well as window guard issues.

A series of maintenance problems emerged in early 2025, with complaints about mold, window frames, heat and hot water, ceiling issues, and water supply problems, though inspections were often inconclusive or required follow-up requests for verification. The building also has some ongoing regulatory compliance issues, with active violations for failing to file energy benchmarking reports as required by NYC codes, dating back to 2019 and 2021. More positively, the building has maintained a clean record for bedbug issues in recent years, with no reported infestations since 2020.

Rodent inspections show a mixed history, with recent inspections in 2023 and 2024 passing, though there were indications of rat activity in 2016 and 2022. The property has also addressed several structural and safety concerns, as evidenced by the closure of multiple violations related to door repairs and fire escape access, though some historical violations regarding fire safety equipment remain open. The most recent building inspection records show a pattern of emergency complaints requiring attention, particularly regarding heat and hot water systems, sanitation issues, and building safety equipment, suggesting ongoing maintenance challenges despite a high level of regulatory oversight and response.
