464 East 187th Street, Bronx, NY 10458

The two-family house at 464 East 187th Street in Belmont, owned by Michael Mahmud Husein, has experienced a series of significant maintenance and health-related issues from 2023 through mid-2025. Most recently, in June 2025, there were rat sightings reported to the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), following similar complaints in 2023, indicating an ongoing rodent problem.

The building has also faced multiple housing maintenance issues, including documented violations related to water leaks and damp spots in September 2023, and an incident involving chemical vapors or odors in June 2023 for which the owner received corrective instructions. The property has a documented history of various maintenance problems throughout 2023, including electrical issues (loss of lighting), ceiling problems, and flooring concerns, many of which were classified as emergency situations. There were also complaints about unsanitary conditions, including pest presence and garbage/recycling storage issues, though these were generally found to have no violations upon inspection.

The building was constructed in 1910 and consists of two stories, typical of its age and classification as a two-family house. A historical complaint from December 2020 regarding water retention and drainage issues was investigated in January 2021, but no violations were found at that time. While some complaints have been resolved and closed, the recurring rodent issues and multiple instances of water-related problems suggest ongoing maintenance challenges at this location.
