2194 Bathgate Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

The two-family house at 2194 Bathgate Avenue in the Belmont neighborhood, owned by David Obregon, has shown recent maintenance challenges in 2025, particularly during April when multiple complaints were filed and investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). These complaints included issues with flooring/stairs, a slow water leak, and an unsanitary condition related to pests, with violations issued for the flooring/stairs issue and pest concerns. A previous pest complaint from March 2025 was not able to be inspected due to access issues.

While the building has a history of passing regular rodent inspections conducted every six months since 2019, indicating generally good pest control management, these recent complaints suggest emerging maintenance concerns that require attention. The property has documented its building history since 1901, consisting of two stories and two units. A Department of Buildings complaint from January 2022 regarding unpermitted work was investigated and found to have no warranted violations.

While the property has consistently passed rodent inspections through 2025, the recent clustering of maintenance issues, particularly during 2025, represents a notable change in the building's upkeep pattern. All the recent complaints have been processed through HPD's Housing Maintenance Code system, though inspections resulted in both violations and some issues being closed without violations. The outcomes of these recent complaints suggest the need for ongoing monitoring of building conditions, particularly regarding the flooring and pest issues, which received official violations.
