1041 Evergreen Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The three-unit, two-story building at 1041 Evergreen Avenue in Soundview, currently owned by 1041 Ega Inc, has experienced several significant issues, particularly relating to unauthorized apartment conversions and ongoing plumbing concerns. Most recently, in July 2024, there were plumbing problems with the water supply that required intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, though these appear to have been resolved.

A notable cluster of violations from March 2018 remains unresolved as of October 2023, including illegal conversions of a basement space into a Class A apartment with kitchen and bathroom facilities, which prompted both Housing Maintenance Code Violations and an Environmental Control Board violation with a $6,250 penalty related to occupancy contrary to records. This same 2018 inspection also identified various building maintenance issues requiring attention, including defective brickwork on both the porch deck and a second-story window lintel.

The building's recent history shows no documented bedbug infestations in the past three reporting periods (2022-2025), and while there have been some rodent inspections showing both passed and failed results between 2015 and 2019, the most recent inspections indicate satisfactory conditions. The property has a mixed maintenance record, with some plumbing issues requiring external agency intervention and multiple ongoing violations from 2018 that suggest historical challenges with unauthorized modifications and various maintenance problems, particularly affecting the basement area.
