3120 Bainbridge Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467
3120 Bainbridge Avenue is a 56-unit, 6-story residential building located in Norwood, constructed in 1929 and currently owned by Narsinh Desai. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with numerous complaints filed between November and December 2024, including multiple instances where the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect the complaints. These issues prompted multiple emergency Housing Maintenance Code complaints.
The building's safety systems require attention, as evidenced by several violations, including a malfunctioning fire escape door in Apartment 5K (Class C violation) and defective fire doors in the public hall on the 6th floor (Class C violation, open as of late 2024). Additional safety concerns were documented in November 2024 for a defective electrical fixture in the 1st-story public hall. The elevator system has been a recurring area of concern, with multiple complaints about its operation between 2021-2023, including issues with emergency systems, self-closing doors, both before and after repair attempts, and failures to meet safety codes. Several violations remain active, including issues with the brake sleeve, control systems, and inspection certification requirements.
The building has faced challenges with its heating system, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to both individual apartments and building-wide systems. Recent inspections have shown mixed results for rodent activity, with evidence of presence noted during several inspections between 2022-2025, though recent inspections in 2024 and 2025 passed. The building has maintained a record of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements over the past several years, with zero reported infestations. Recent maintenance work appears to have addressed some issues, as indicated by the certification of violations related to smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 3B, completed in December 2024.
