318 East 151st Street, Bronx, NY 10451

318 East 151st Street is a 4-story, 12-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1918, currently owned by Beverly Frazier. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past five years, with the most concerning cluster of problems occurring in early 2021.

During March 2021, multiple violations were documented and subsequently closed, including issues with water leaks (damp spots and heavy flow), mold (unsanitary conditions), and problems with walls and ceilings requiring paint/plaster repairs. Specifically, Apartment 2C was the focus of multiple violations during 2021, including electrical problems (defective ceiling light fixture and kitchen outlet), water leak issues in the bathroom, and violations related to missing safety equipment such as carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors. More recent inspections in 2023 showed rodent activity in August and May, indicating ongoing pest management challenges.

However, regarding bedbug infestations, the building has maintained a clean record since at least 2019, with nothing reported across the last seven annual bedbug reports from 2019 through 2025. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of both emergency and non-emergency repairs being addressed, with violations from 2021 having been certified as corrected by various dates in 2021 and 2022. While significant maintenance issues have been addressed, the presence of rat activity in recent years suggests continued vigilance is needed in pest management.
