Augrented Insights Report for 2461 Elm Place

2461 Elm Place is a 5-story, 16-unit residential building located in Fordham and owned by Christos Benardis. Built in 1931, this New Law Tenement building has experienced significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, between 2023 and 2024, there were multiple reports and violations related to safety equipment, including problems with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and window guards in April 2023, though some of these violations were later closed. A recurring concern has been pest control, with several sanitation complaints filed in 2024 regarding pests and rodents, including recent rat activity noted in May 2024 and violations issued by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene in May 2024.

The building has ongoing lead-based paint hazard compliance issues, with open violations as of June 2023 affecting multiple units (1S, 2S, 3S, and 5S) related to required documentation and inspection certifications. The property has faced other significant violations, including a potentially serious structural issue with a defective marble stair tread nosing reported in June 2023 (Class B violation) and historical concerns about emergency exits being obstructed by various items. During 2022, there were multiple violations concerning the maintenance of sidewalk sheds, safety compliance, and boiler registration, with some resulting in substantial fines. Recent rodent inspections show a pattern of rat activity, though the most recent February 2025 inspection passed.

The building has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations in the past five years of annual reporting. While there have been numerous violations and complaints over the years, some have been resolved through inspections and corrective actions. The building has undergone rodent control measures, with baiting and inspections continuing into 2025. It's important to note that not all complaints resulted in violations, as seen in several 311 complaints where inspectors found no violations at the time of inspection.
