439 East 143rd Street, Bronx, NY 10454

The three-story, 3-unit tenement building at 439 East 143rd Street in Mott Haven, constructed in 1910, has shown consistent attention to required health and safety regulations over the past several years under owner Gregory Carmichael. Most notably, there is an ongoing housing maintenance code violation from April 2024 regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports, which appears to be a recurring issue despite previous violations from 2021 to 2023.

However, the building's bedbug reporting history shows no actual infestations during the 2021-2022 period, with no units reported as infested, eradicated, or re-infested in the March 2023 filing. The property has maintained a strong record in terms of rodent control, passing inspection in May 2023, as well as in previous years including 2022, 2020, 2017, 2012, and 2011.

The building's only other notable incident occurred in 2018 when a vacate order was allegedly removed or defaced in connection with a complaint about an illegal cellar apartment, though this violation was resolved with no penalties imposed. This extensive history of compliance with rodent control regulations and lack of bedbug infestations, despite the administrative issue with reporting requirements, suggests reasonable attention to building maintenance and resident health concerns, though the repeated nature of the bedbug report violations warrants attention.
