Questions about this building

Does 403 East 139 Street, Bronx have open violations?

Yes. 403 East 139 Street, Bronx had 71 open violations on October 10, 2026: 70 from HPD and 1 from OATH/ECB. 35 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 9 years, since April 18, 2017.

Is 403 East 139 Street, Bronx getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 35 open Class C, with 0 certifications filed and 4 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends October 10, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 403 East 139 Street, Bronx?

Since October 12, 2023, certifications were filed on 8 Class C violations, all 8 by the original certify-by date. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.

Does 403 East 139 Street, Bronx have active DOB violations?

Yes. 17 active DOB violations. The newest was issued November 14, 2025. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.

Has 403 East 139 Street, Bronx been in housing court?

Yes. 11 housing court cases here since 2017. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.

Has DOB received complaints about 403 East 139 Street, Bronx?

Yes. 2 DOB complaints in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. The newest was filed July 3, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 403 East 139 Street, Bronx marked completed?

Yes. 5 completed HPD emergency repair orders since October 12, 2023, awarded for $7,939 in total. The most recent of the 5, a general construction order, was opened August 19, 2026. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.

When did 403 East 139 Street, Bronx last file its bedbug report?

On December 11, 2024, for the year to October 31, 2024. HPD asks the owner of every building with 3 or more apartments for this report once a year, covering November 1 to October 31, including buildings that had no bedbugs.

When was 403 East 139 Street, Bronx built?

The city's record gives 1892 as the year 403 East 139 Street, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a walk-up building with 3 floors.

How many apartments does 403 East 139 Street, Bronx have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 14 residential units at 403 East 139 Street, Bronx. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOF's tax lien sale lists, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, DOB NOW work permits, HPD emergency repair orders, HPD's annual bedbug reports, the city's PLUTO tax-lot file and DOF's property sales records. This page is current through October 10, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOF's tax lien sale lists, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, DOB NOW work permits, HPD emergency repair orders, HPD's annual bedbug reports, the city's PLUTO tax-lot file and DOF's property sales records. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
