3208 Bainbridge Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The 7-unit, 3-story New Law Tenement building at 3208 Bainbridge Avenue in Norwood, owned by Mona Brahimi, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, with three documented outages in 2022, the most recent occurring in June 2025. The building, constructed in 1929, has faced multiple maintenance challenges, particularly in 2020 when several serious issues were reported between July and August, including pest infestations, mold, water leaks, and problems with paint and plaster.

These conditions were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though access issues often prevented thorough inspections. The building currently has several open violations from 2020 related to Apartment 1A, including issues with roaches, ceiling repairs, water leaks, and missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Recent inspections have shown some improvement in pest management, with no bedbug infestations reported in the last three years (2021-2024 filing periods), and the most recent rodent inspections in 2025 indicate passing results, suggesting effective pest control measures are now in place. However, there remains an open violation from 2022 regarding the obstruction of fire escapes on the 2nd story. The building's age and history of maintenance issues suggest periodic attention to basic building systems and unit conditions is required, though recent inspections indicate some stabilization in building conditions over the past two years.
