3224 Bronx Boulevard, Bronx, NY 10467

3224 Bronx Boulevard is a 4-story, 16-unit residential building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Nick Gazivoda. The property has experienced recurring heating and water maintenance issues over the past several years, with most significant problems occurring between late 2019 and 2020. During this period, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding loss of heat and hot water affecting the entire building, with tenants reporting these systems were restored in response to HPD interventions.

Additionally, there were three water-related incidents in August 2020, including both slow and heavy flow leaks, as well as issues with ceiling paint/plaster. The building is currently facing several active violations from June 2023 related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021. More positively, the building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug control, with all annual reports from 2018 to 2025 showing zero infested units, eradicated units, or re-infested units.

Recent rodent inspections have shown mixed results, with rat activity detected in November 2018, though previous inspections in 2012 and 2013 had passed compliance checks. The most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2024 shows no infestations, continuing the property's clean record for this particular pest. While the building has experienced infrastructure challenges in the past, particularly with heating systems, the absence of recent heat/hot water complaints and the regular bedbug management indicate some level of improved maintenance compliance in recent years.
