838 East 156th Street, Bronx, NY 10455

The three-story, four-unit tenement building at 838 East 156th Street in Longwood, owned by Annette Bryant, has an extensive history of housing maintenance code violations and rodent inspections dating back to 2010. Most notably, the building has accumulated four consecutive annual violations from 2021 through 2024 regarding the failure to file the required annual bedbug reports, with these violations remaining open as of 2024.

These recurring bedbug report violations suggest ongoing non-compliance with housing maintenance requirements. The building's rodent inspection history shows a mixed record, with the most recent inspection in November 2023 resulting in a passing grade after an initial rat activity finding in September 2023.

Prior to these recent inspections, the building had generally maintained compliance, with passing grades in inspections from 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2018, though there was one failure for "Other Reasons" noted in May 2010. The presence of rat activity in 2023 is concerning, though it appears to have been addressed in subsequent inspections. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections, the ongoing bedbug report violations represent the most significant current compliance issue.
