420 East 138th Street, Bronx, NY 10454

420 East 138th Street is a five-story, eight-unit Old Law Tenement building located in the Mott Haven neighborhood, constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Golan Darvish. The building's recent history shows consistent attention to bedbug reporting compliance, with annual reports filed between 2021 and 2023 confirming zero infested units during the reporting periods, though the building remains subject to mandatory bedbug reporting violations, with the most recent open violation dated April 2024.

The property has maintained generally good conditions in terms of pest control, with passed rodent inspections in 2022 and 2023, though records from 2015-2016 indicate previous rat activity requiring bait application. The building has one active Department of Buildings violation from June 2023 regarding failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection, which remains unresolved as of the most recent data.

Historical records show completed construction permits in late 2018 for work classified under plumbing and electrical categories, though specific details of these improvements are not provided in the available data. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, particularly with pests in the mid-2010s, recent inspections suggest improved overall building conditions, with all recent pest reports indicating successful management of bedbug and rodent populations. The property has not recorded any serious safety violations or emergency incidents in recent years, indicating stable building management practices, though the open violation regarding bedbug reporting compliance from 2024 warrants attention.
