3240 Bronxwood Avenue, Bronx, NY 10469

This two-family house at 3240 Bronxwood Avenue in Williamsbridge, owned by Mark Johnson, has experienced persistent maintenance issues throughout 2023, with the most significant problems relating to heat and hot water systems. The building has documented multiple heat and hot water complaints, including a recent October 2023 complaint for the entire building, which was closed after tenants reported restoration of service.

Between June and October 2023, there were at least seven separate complaints/issues involving heat and hot water, with some resulting in violations being issued. The property also faced various other maintenance challenges during this period, including plumbing and water supply problems (July and August 2023), electrical issues (no lighting in August 2023), a water leak (August 2023), and unsanitary conditions related to mold (June 2023). The building's history shows some attempted oversight in resolving the issues, with multiple inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) and the Department of Buildings (DOB).

Two plumbing emergencies were recorded in July and August 2023, and there are records of complaints regarding illegal conversion and drainage issues in 2022, though inspections for these matters reportedly encountered access difficulties. While some complaints were resolved without violations being issued, the recurring nature of heat and hot water problems throughout 2023 raises concerns about the building's maintenance and infrastructure systems. The property was built in 1950 and is structured as a two-story building containing two residential units.
