807 East 156th Street, Bronx, NY 10455

The four-story, 4-unit building at 807 East 156th Street in Longwood, owned by John Montanez, has undergone significant scrutiny regarding pest control and maintenance compliance since its construction in 1910. Most notably, the property has maintained a record of bedbug infestation reporting compliance since 2020, with the most recent reports (2023-2024) showing no infested or previously infested units.

However, there was a period of concern in 2018 when the building faced ECB violations related to failure to maintain walls and compliance with commissioner's orders, resulting in $800 in penalties, though these were subsequently resolved. The building has experienced ongoing rodent-related challenges over the years, with the most recent inspection in September 2023 passing, demonstrating improvement in rodent control. Previous inspections in 2022 showed rat activity in April and June, highlighting a temporary infestation period.

Historical rodent inspections show a mix of passed and failed results, particularly in 2010 and 2012, indicating fluctuating conditions. The property has also had multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations requiring bedbug report filings, particularly in 2021 and 2022, though these appear to have been resolved as evidenced by subsequent filings showing no infested units. The building's recent records (2023-2025) suggest improved maintenance practices, with no new violations or infestations reported in the most recent inspection cycles.
