2123 Hughes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10457

The three-unit residential building at 2123 Hughes Avenue in the Belmont neighborhood, owned by Flaviano Garcia, has been facing persistent issues with bedbug reporting compliance since 2021. As of April 2024, there are still open violations regarding the failure to file the required annual bedbug reports in accordance with NYC Housing Maintenance Code, a requirement that has remained unaddressed for at least four consecutive years.

While these reporting violations don't directly indicate a bedbug infestation, they suggest ongoing non-compliance with city housing regulations. In terms of rodent control, the building's record presents a mixed picture. Most recently, in April 2025, the property passed a compliance inspection, which is a positive development.

However, there was documented rat activity in March 2025, though this was followed by a passing inspection later that April. Prior to this, the building maintained a consistent record of passing initial rodent inspections from 2022 through 2024, with all showing compliance except for the recent rat activity incident in March 2025. The building, constructed in 2004, has generally complied with rodent control requirements, though the single instance of rat activity raises some concerns about recent conditions.
