990 Ogden Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452

The 3-unit, 3-story building at 990 Ogden Avenue in the Highbridge neighborhood, owned by Erika Diaz, has faced several maintenance challenges in recent years, with particular attention needed to common areas and compliance reporting. Most notably, there is currently an open violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file an annual bedbug report, continuing a pattern of non-compliance observed since at least 2021.

In 2023, multiple violations were documented in June, including mold issues (approximately 5 sq ft at the 3rd story public hall ceiling), and various maintenance requirements for the 3rd story public hall including repairs to broken fire retardant materials, repainting with light colored paint, and addressing defects in the electrical light fixture. The building has also experienced recurring rodent issues, with multiple "Rat Activity" inspections noted between 2024-2025, though recent rodent inspections in early 2025 have passed.

While some issues have been resolved (e.g., mold and lighting violations were certified as corrected in 2023), the recurring pattern of bedbug report violations and ongoing rat activity suggests persistent maintenance challenges. The building was constructed in 1902 and has been classified as HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A, with its most recent bedbug reporting period (ending October 2022) showing no infested or re-infested units, despite the filing violation. A single complaint was filed in 2019 regarding permits, but this was promptly investigated and found to warrant no violations.
