1132 Elder Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

This two-story, four-unit New Law tenement building at 1132 Elder Avenue in Soundview, owned by Mimi Medina and constructed in 1928, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout 2023-2024, with documented complaints in November 2023, January, March, and December 2024. While violations were issued for these emergency heat/hot water complaints, particularly in December 2024, several of these complaints were closed without inspection due to lack of access to units, though one complaint in January 2024 was verified as corrected.

The building has also faced administrative challenges, including multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to annual bedbug reporting requirements between 2021-2024, though the April 2023 bedbug report indicates no infested units during the 2021-2022 period. On a more positive note, the building's rodent control efforts appear generally effective, achieving passing results in inspections from 2018 through 2025, with only one failed initial inspection in March 2024, suggesting improvements were made for subsequent inspections.

The most recent structural activity involves a permit issued in December 2023 for unspecified work under job number 240355156. The property's documented history shows consistent attention to pest control (with annual bedbug reporting requirements) and regular building inspections, though the recurring heat-related issues remain a significant concern for residents.
