3142 Tiemann Avenue, Bronx, NY 10469

3142 Tiemann Avenue, a one-story, two-family house built in 1901 and owned by Linda Sciubba, has experienced several concerning issues over the past few years, particularly between 2022 and 2023. The building has faced multiple heat and hot water problems, with emergency complaints registered in November 2022 for the entire building and January 2023 for individual units, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify conditions in some cases.

There have been recurring pest issues, with multiple complaints regarding unsanitary conditions and pests in 2022 and 2023, including inspections that identified mouse and roach infestations, particularly affecting the basement apartment. The property has also faced air quality concerns, with both indoor air quality and standing water complaints filed in 2022, and violations noted by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. The building currently has several open violations from October 2022, including issues with loose electric light fixtures, concrete steps, and dog fecal matter in the yard, as well as multiple rodent-related violations.

There are also ongoing concerns about an illegal conversion and unpermitted work, with inspection attempts recorded in 2022 and 2024 where inspectors were unable to gain access. The rodent inspection records show a pattern of failures, particularly throughout 2022, with only one inspection in July 2022 showing compliance. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with both basic services (like heat and hot water) and pest control, with multiple follow-up inspections and complaints indicating these issues are not consistently resolved.
