281 East 168th Street, Bronx, NY 10456
The two-story, three-unit building at 281 East 168th Street in Concourse Village, owned by Kevin Valenitine, has encountered ongoing pest-related issues over the past several years. Most recently, in August 2024, there was a reported unsanitary condition involving pests, which was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) but resulted in no violations.
The building has consistently failed to comply with annual bedbug reporting requirements, having received four consecutive violations from 2021 through 2024 specifically citing non-compliance with filing annual bedbug reports as required under the Housing Maintenance Code. The property's rodent inspection history presents a mixed picture of maintenance and pest control challenges.
In May 2025, the building failed a rodent inspection for unspecified reasons, which is of particular concern given its position as the most recent inspection outcome. While the building passed several rodent inspections between 2021 and 2024, there was one instance of recorded rat activity in May 2023, and the building had previously maintained a generally passing record in this regard, suggesting at least some periods of successful pest management. The inspection records show a pattern of both rodent and pest-related issues, indicating persistent challenges with maintaining a pest-free environment, though the most recent bedbug-related violations were issued in 2024 and 2023, respectively, suggesting possible improvement in compliance with this particular requirement.
