Augrented Insights
AI summary · updated June 2026

The 6-unit, 3-story building at 2884 Valentine Avenue in Fordham, owned by Clara Martinez, has a mixed record since its 1915 construction. The property has experienced recurring issues with its electrical system, particularly in August 2019 when unsafe wiring conditions, including missing electric light fixtures and exposed wires at the building entrance, were documented as Class C violations. More recently, between 2022 and 2023, the building faced violations related to its annual bedbug reporting requirements, with multiple citations issued for failure to comply with filing regulations, though these violations were subsequently closed. In mid-2023, four violations were recorded regarding external low-pressure inspection filings for 2018-2021, though all were dismissed by December 2023.

The building's more recent history shows some positive developments regarding pest management. As of May 2025, the property has maintained a clean record with zero reported bedbug infestations in the past two reporting periods (2022-2023 and 2023-2024), and all rodent inspections from 2015 through 2024 have passed successfully, indicating effective pest control measures. A 2019 sanitation complaint regarding garbage/recycling storage was investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations. While the building has faced several regulatory issues over the years, recent records suggest improved compliance with pest management requirements, with no current open violations affecting resident safety or comfort.
