724 East 181st Street, Bronx, NY 10457

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 724 East 181st Street in the Belmont neighborhood, owned by Margaret Lopez Watson, has experienced recurring maintenance compliance issues over the past few years, particularly concerning bedbug reporting requirements. Most notably, there have been three open violations in 2023, 2024, and most recently in April 2024, all related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report under Housing Maintenance Code § HMC.

While the building's bedbug reporting history shows no infested units or eradication cases during the 2020-2021 reporting period, the pattern of violations suggests ongoing non-compliance with reporting requirements. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections over the past several years, with the most recent inspection in June 2025 resulting in a "Passed" status, following a "Rat Activity" finding in February 2025 and a similar result in December 2024.

Notably, the building maintained a consistent record of passing inspections from 2020 to 2023, suggesting generally good conditions regarding rodent control, despite the recent spikes in rat activity. The building, constructed in 1925 and classified as HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A, has shown resilience in maintaining basic housing standards, though the ongoing bedbug reporting violations indicate an area requiring improved compliance with housing maintenance requirements.
