3824 Pratt Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466

The two-story, five-unit building at 3824 Pratt Avenue in Edenwald, owned by Yahya Alsaydi, has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over the past five years. Most recently, in August 2024, the property faced sanitary concerns with both sewage leaks and associated odors, though investigations by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene did not result in violations, except for an advisory requiring attention to the odor issue.

From 2021-2024, the building received four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though the most recent filing for 2025 (covering period November 2023 - October 2024) reported zero instances of infestation or re-infestation. The building's history also includes a 2019 rodent sighting complaint and a notable incident in 2018 when a drainage issue resulted in wastewater leakage onto a neighbor's property, leading to violations and a penalty from the Environmental Control Board.

The property has shown some improvement in recent years, with the 2025 bedbug report indicating no infestation during the specified period, marking a possible resolution to the previous compliance issues. However, the recurring bedbug report violations between 2021-2024 and recent sewage-related complaints suggest ongoing attention to building maintenance is required. The building's age (constructed in 1934) and classification as a "New Law Tenement" indicate it is subject to specific regulatory requirements regarding maintenance and reporting, which have been inconsistently met in recent years.
