389 East 154th Street, Bronx, NY 10455

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 389 East 154th Street in the Melrose neighborhood, owned by Jose Puma and constructed in 2003, has experienced recurring issues with compliance regarding bedbug reporting requirements over the past four years. Between 2021 and 2024, the building has received four class A violations under the Housing Maintenance Code for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports with HPD, though no specific violation dates are provided.

Most recently, in December 2023, a rodent sighting was reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, though this was promptly investigated and resulted in no violations being found. This incident represents the only documented pest-related service request in recent history. The building has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent one in January 2024 passing successfully, continuing a pattern of compliance dating back to at least 2010.

Historical data shows that the property has maintained good standing in fulfilling rodent-related requirements, with all rodent inspections consistently passing. It's noteworthy that while there have been several bedbug reporting violations, this requirement is largely administrative in nature, and no actual bedbug infestations have been documented through these violations. The property appears to have maintained general compliance with health and safety standards, with the rat sighting in 2023 being the only recorded pest-related incident in recent years, and this being resolved without any violations.
