3136 Perry Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

3136 Perry Avenue is a 6-story, 48-unit New Law Tenement building located in Norwood, built in 1928 and currently owned by Paul Gjonaj. The building has experienced recurring heating issues in early 2025, with multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints filed between January and February 2025, all involving the entire building and requiring HPD intervention to verify corrections. The elevator system has been a significant ongoing concern, with recent active complaints from May 2025 regarding single device operation with no alternate service.

Previous elevator-related issues were documented between 2020 and 2021, including violations for inoperative emergency phones and various safety concerns. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of both electrical and safety issues, with multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded in early 2024, including exposed wiring near mailboxes, defective self-closing doors, and various problems with fire safety systems. While the building has maintained a clean record for bedbugs, with zero reported infestations since 2019, it has faced challenges with rodent control, particularly in 2022-2023, when several inspections noted rat activity.

Environmental violations in 2020-2021 highlighted various mechanical and safety concerns, including issues with the boiler system and elevator components, though these have been resolved. The property has undergone some improvements, evidenced by issued permits, including electrical work and fixture replacements. The building's management has typically addressed violations, as most historical issues show a "Closed" status, though recent complaints about the elevator system remain unresolved as of 2025.
