1303 Intervale Avenue, Bronx, NY 10459

The three-story residential building at 1303 Intervale Avenue in East Morrisania, owned by Emmeth Nathaniel, has been in operation since 1997 and contains three units. The property has experienced recurring Housing Maintenance Code violations over the past four years (2021-2024), with each year receiving an open violation related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report with HPD, as mandated under Section HMC.

The most recent of these violations, dated April 2024, remains unresolved. The building has also faced challenges with rodent activity, most notably in 2022 when rat activity was documented twice (July and September), marking a concerning pattern of infestation that year.

However, prior to that, the building's rodent inspections showed consistent compliance, with all inspections from 2010 through 2018 passing without incident. This suggests that the recent pest management issues may be an emerging problem rather than a long-standing concern. While the building's relatively young age of 26 years is typical for the neighborhood, the combination of unresolved bedbug reporting violations and recent rodent activity could indicate potential gaps in the building's maintenance and pest management protocols.
