Is 3908 Carpenter Avenue, Bronx getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 4 open Class C, with nothing filed or new in the last 180 days. 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 3908 Carpenter Avenue, Bronx?

Since October 12, 2023, a certification was filed on 1 Class C violation, 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.

Has 3908 Carpenter Avenue, Bronx been in housing court?

Yes. 2 housing court cases here since 2015. 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.

Are any DOB work permits in effect at 3908 Carpenter Avenue, Bronx?

Yes. 4 DOB work permits in effect. The latest, for Full Demolition work, was issued September 28, 2026. A permit in effect allows the work it names. It does not mean the work has started or finished, or that it fixes any violation on this page.

When was 3908 Carpenter Avenue, Bronx built?

The city's record gives 1928 as the year 3908 Carpenter Avenue, 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 2 floors.

How many apartments does 3908 Carpenter Avenue, Bronx have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 4 residential units at 3908 Carpenter Avenue, 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 DOF's tax lien sale lists, HPD's housing court cases, DOB NOW work permits, 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 DOF's tax lien sale lists, HPD's housing court cases, DOB NOW work permits, 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.
