1142 Manor Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The property at 1142 Manor Avenue in Soundview, built in 1926 and currently owned by Shlomo Denti, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years. Between 2018-2019, the building faced multiple electrical problems, including power outages, faulty wiring, and lighting issues, resulting in several violation notices. There were also heating hot water problems affecting both apartments and the entire building, with some violations issued by HPD.

During the same period, serious concerns about lead paint hazards emerged, with multiple violations related to failure to investigate and notify occupants, as well as issues with maintaining proper documentation. In late 2019 and early 2020, there were violations regarding illegal occupancy and conversion issues, including unauthorized modifications to the building's structure and systems, though some of these violations have since been resolved. More recent history shows improvements in some areas, with the building successfully passing rodent inspections in 2025 and consistent bedbug reports showing no infestations since 2021.

The most recent housing maintenance code violations, recorded in 2022, primarily relate to bedbug reporting compliance. However, several significant electrical and occupancy violations remain active or were only partially resolved, including concerns about unauthorized electrical work and occupancy contrary to the certificate of occupancy. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring electrical and heating system issues, though many of these problems appear to have been addressed over time. The property has also undergone regular bedbug reporting with no documented infestations in recent years, and while there have been some rodent activity reports, recent inspections show passing results.
