3751 Olinville Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The three-story, three-unit building at 3751 Olinville Avenue in the Olinville neighborhood, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Pansy Mczener, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues over recent years. Most notably, in January 2024, a heat/hot water complaint was verified and corrected by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), while a similar complaint in February 2020 could not be investigated due to lack of access. Multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations have been documented related to lead-based paint hazards, with open violations from 2023 and 2022 indicating failures to notify occupants and provide required records regarding lead paint inspections and remediation.

The building has also faced bedbug reporting requirements, with violations noted in 2024, 2022, and 2021, though recent filings indicate no current infestations and successful eradication of affected units. Historical safety concerns were addressed in 2018, when violations requiring gas leak notification procedures and building registration postings were corrected. The property's recent history shows some improvement in certain areas, as evidenced by the successful resolution of recent heat issues and the most recent bedbug report confirming no current infestations.

A rodent inspection in September 2022 resulted in a passing grade, suggesting some level of compliance with health and safety standards. However, the open violations related to lead paint hazards from 2023 and 2022 remain a notable concern, as do the building's recurring heat/hot water issues, though these appear to be sporadic rather than persistent problems. The property has maintained a regular schedule of addressing annual bedbug reporting requirements, and the most recent reports indicate successful eradication efforts.
