1102 Rev James Polite Ave, Bronx, NY 10459

The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 1102 Rev James Polite Ave in Longwood, owned by Mamadou Jallow, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, in August 2023, there were multiple service requests related to water leaks (heavy flow), door problems, plumbing issues (bathtub/shower), and various unsanitary conditions including pests and mold. While Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was able to inspect several of these complaints, no violations were issued in any of these cases.

The building has also been subject to recurring violations regarding the filing of annual bedbug reports from 2021 to 2024, though recent bedbug filings show no infested units during the past two reporting periods (2022-2023 and 2023-2024). Previous concerns in the building's history include an Environmental Control Board violation from 2018 related to the removal of a vacate order concerning illegal cellar SROs, though records show that this was resolved without any penalty. The building's maintenance history reflects a mix of issues and compliance efforts, including regular rodent inspections from 2010 to 2017, all of which passed.

A permit for an electrical work was issued in October 2022, indicating ongoing maintenance of building systems. While the property has experienced various maintenance issues, more recent HPD inspections have not resulted in violations being issued, though it's worth noting that several complaints in 2023 were closed due to lack of access for inspection. The most recent bedbug reporting shows a marked improvement in infestation management, with no reported cases in the past two years despite having three infested units in the 2019-2020 period.
