3653 East Tremont Avenue, Bronx, NY 10465

The two-family house at 3653 East Tremont Avenue in Throgs Neck, owned by Hemwantie Persaud, has experienced significant regulatory scrutiny over the past two years. The property, constructed in 1927, has been subject to multiple investigations regarding illegal work and permit violations, with inspections taking place between 2023 and 2025 revealing various enforcement actions. Most recently, in 2025, there were separate incidents involving after-hours work and two Local Law Audits that resulted in Oath Violations.

In 2024, the building faced concerns about structural stability, with a complaint regarding shaking and vibrating property, though this complaint was later closed with an Oath Violation. Earlier violations included a Partial Stop Work Order in February 2024 related to unauthorized work, and multiple failures to file required External Low Pressure Inspections between 2018 and 2023. The building has active violations as of 2024-2025, including failure to certify corrections on immediately hazardous violations and a requirement to install approximately 30 linear feet of sidewalk shed.

Despite these numerous violations and enforcement actions, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the building during the most recent reporting period from November 2022 to October 2023, with records showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units. While the building has undergone multiple inspections and received various citations from the Department of Buildings, it's worth noting that not all complaints resulted in violations being issued; for example, a 2025 complaint about illegal after-hours work was closed with no violations warranted at the time of inspection. The property's extensive record of violations and complaints suggests ongoing regulatory oversight and potential concerns regarding building maintenance and compliance with safety regulations, though many of these issues are documented as having been addressed or closed through various enforcement processes.
