292 East 151st Street, Bronx, NY 10451

292 East 151st Street is a four-story, eight-unit residential building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Ron Karo and located in the Melrose neighborhood. The building's recent history (2022-2025) shows a pattern of Department of Buildings (DOB) complaints and violations, though most were resolved without significant penalties.

Between 2022 and 2023, there were multiple complaints related to construction safety compliance and adjacent building protection, including a temporary stop work order in July 2022 that was fully rescinded. The property has also been subject to regular "CSE: Sweep" inspections, with the most recent taking place in December 2023, none of which resulted in violations.

Notably, there were several "Failure to Certify Correction" violations for immediately hazardous conditions between 2019 and 2020, though these were subsequently dismissed in 2023 after appropriate corrections were verified. The building has maintained a clean record regarding pest issues, as evidenced by the bedbug reports for the periods ending August 2024 and June 2025, both showing zero infested units and no eradication or re-infestation incidents. The property's relatively high number of complaints and violations between 2019 and 2022 suggests past management challenges, but the more recent history shows improved compliance and attention to maintenance requirements, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years.
