2241 Bathgate Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

2241 Bathgate Avenue is a three-story, two-family residential building constructed in 2004 and currently owned by Olukayode Orokotan. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly affecting Apartment 3 on the second floor, with multiple violations remaining open as of the most recent inspection records. Significant problems were documented in January 2022, including electrical issues with multiple broken or defective fixtures and outlets in the bathroom and kitchen, lack of adequate heat, and a pest infestation consisting of roaches.

Several emergency complaints were filed in January 2022 regarding heat/hot water, electrical problems, cooking gas, and unsanitary conditions, with some violations issued though access was not granted for inspections on multiple occasions. More recent complaints in March 2023 involved mold and pest issues, though no violations were ultimately issued. Despite these historical maintenance challenges, more recent records from 2020 through 2025 show consistent passing results on rodent inspections, suggesting improved pest management.

As of the most recent inspection in May 2025, the building successfully passed its rodent inspection. The property has undergone regular inspections every six months to one year since 2020, consistently demonstrating compliance with rodent control requirements. While historical records indicate significant maintenance issues, the most recent inspections suggest improved conditions, though it's worth noting that many past violations from January 2022 remain open according to the Housing Maintenance Code Violations database.
