4030 De Reimer Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466

4030 De Reimer Avenue is a 2-family house located in Edenwald, Bronx, built in 1955 and currently owned by Arthur Abramchaev. The property has experienced significant compliance issues over recent years, particularly concerning illegal conversions and occupancy violations. Between 2018 and 2021, multiple complaints were filed regarding the illegal conversion of the first-floor unit, which was being occupied as B-units with three SROs sharing common facilities, contrary to its Class A apartment designation.

These violations led to multiple Environmental Control Board (ECB) fines totaling over $50,000, including an ongoing active violation from January 2022 with a $10,000 penalty for failure to comply with commissioner's orders. The building also faced safety concerns in March 2021, when wood railings with missing balusters were observed at interior stairs, creating a fall hazard. In late 2022, the building experienced multiple maintenance issues including unsanitary conditions, plumbing problems, and various door/window concerns.

While the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) investigated several complaints, including mold, garbage storage, and multiple door/window-related issues, no violations were ultimately issued in these cases. However, several complaints didn't allow for HPD access for inspection. The building has multiple active ECB violations regarding failure to comply with commissioner's orders and certificate of correction requirements, including a violation for interior stairs maintenance in 2021. The extensive history of illegal conversion violations and ongoing failure to comply with correction orders suggest persistent compliance challenges at this property.
