2966 Marion Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The two-story, three-unit building at 2966 Marion Avenue in Norwood, owned by Regina Ward and constructed in 1901, has experienced ongoing pest management challenges in recent years. The property has documented rodent activity consistently from 2022 through 2024, with multiple inspections showing rat activity, though the most recent inspection in August 2024 resulted in a passing compliance check, following previous bait applications earlier that summer.

Significant sanitary concerns have been recorded, including a July 2023 Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection that found violations requiring follow-up inspections, and a 2021 Housing Preservation and Development investigation into pest-related unsanitary conditions that was eventually resolved. Historically, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with official reports from 2021, 2022, and 2024 showing zero infested dwelling units, and the property has consistently filed its annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code regulations.

Despite these persistent pest management challenges, it's worth noting that violations have generally been addressed and closed appropriately when identified, with the most recent rodent inspection passing compliance standards. The building's pest management history reflects an ongoing effort to address and monitor rodent activity, though residents should anticipate potential recurring pest issues given the building's recent history.
