AI summary · updated June 2026

The 3-unit, 3-story building at 1051 Morris Avenue in Concourse Village, owned by John Walker, has had consistent attention to pest management and compliance with housing maintenance codes. Built in 1905 and now classified as a Heretofore Converted Class A building, this property has experienced recurring bedbug report violations across multiple years (2021-2024), with the most recent violation occurring in April 2024, though previous violations from 2023, 2022, and 2021 were all ultimately closed. These violations relate specifically to the requirement of filing annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

This building has maintained a strong record of passing rodent inspections, with the most recent inspection occurring in April 2025, all showing "Passed" results. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections annually since 2019, demonstrating a proactive approach to pest management in this area. Interestingly, the building's most recent bedbug report filed in April 2023 (covering the 2021-2022 period) showed no infestation claims, with records indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units during that period.

Overall, while the building has had ongoing administrative violations regarding bedbug report filings, it has demonstrated compliance with rodent control standards and has maintained an actual bedbug-free status according to recent reports.
