1975 Morris Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453

The three-story converted dwelling at 1975 Morris Avenue in Mount Hope, owned by Santiago Rodriguez, has experienced some recurring maintenance challenges since 2021, particularly regarding compliance with bedbug reporting requirements. The property has received four consecutive violations from 2021 through 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by Housing Maintenance Code.

However, all these violations have been closed, and the building's subsequent bedbug reports from November 2020 through the most recent filing in December 2024 show no recorded instances of infestation or re-infestation in either unit during any reporting periods, indicating successful compliance once the initial violations were addressed. In terms of rodent activity, the building's inspection history presents a mixed picture.

Most recently, in July 2025, the property passed a compliance inspection, following a period of rat activity documented in May 2025 and a previous December 2024 failure for "Other Reasons." Prior to these recent inspections, the building had a consistent record of passing initial inspections between 2021 and 2024, suggesting that while there have been some recent rodent concerns, the property has generally maintained acceptable conditions. The most recent filings indicate that while the property experienced some pest management issues in the past, there has been active monitoring and response to these challenges, with recent inspections showing improved compliance.
