3343 Fenton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10469

The property at 3343 Fenton Avenue in Baychester is a two-family, two-story building constructed in 1935, currently owned by Kenneth Lafayette. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, particularly related to water leaks, with two significant "heavy flow" leak complaints filed in September and December 2022, both of which required emergency responses.

Additional maintenance concerns in 2022 included pest infestations, wall damage, and appliance issues, though inspections from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations associated with these complaints. The building has faced more serious structural concerns, particularly in August 2018, when two complaints were filed regarding building stability, including an incident involving a collapsed retaining wall at an adjacent property that presented potential risk to 3343 Fenton Avenue's rear yard.

While one of these complaints resulted in a partial vacate order being served, an inspection the following day found no violations. More recently, in 2023, two complaints were filed regarding suspected illegal conversions of the property, though inspections were unable to be completed due to access issues. The building has also been subject to one active violation related to the 2018 retaining wall collapse incident, which remains open as of 2023.
