1239 Thieriot Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The three-unit, three-story residential tenement at 1239 Thieriot Avenue in Soundview, owned by Fidel Maldonado, has experienced several significant housing maintenance issues over the past several years, primarily centered around bedbug reporting compliance. The most recent violation, recorded in April 2024, marks the fourth consecutive year (including violations in 2021, 2022, and 2023) for which the building has failed to file the required annual bedbug report as mandated by Housing Maintenance Code § HMC.

While these violations are administrative in nature, their recurrence suggests ongoing challenges with compliance to city regulations. The building's history with rodent inspections shows a generally positive track record, with five inspections conducted between 2010 and 2017.

All but one of these inspections resulted in passing grades, including consecutive passes in 2017 and 2014, though a September 2013 inspection resulted in a failure for unspecified reasons related to rodent control. Built in 1935, this traditional New York tenement building has maintained a relatively stable unit count, though its age and building class designation as a "New Law Tenement" are worth noting in the context of its historical significance and regulatory requirements.
