AI summary · updated June 2026

The three-story, three-unit New Law Tenement building at 3131 Decatur Avenue in Norwood, owned by Kiamul Haque and constructed in 1915, has experienced several concerning patterns regarding maintenance and pest control over the past few years. Most notably, the property has ongoing rodent infestation issues, with multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025 consistently showing rat activity, including a recent November 2023 rat sighting complaint that resulted in Department of Health violations requiring follow-up inspections. The building has also faced recurring violations related to bedbug reporting compliance, with multiple Annual Bedbug Report violations documented between 2021 and 2024, though recent filings for 2022-2023 and 2021-2022 periods show no infested units.

Between 2019 and 2020, the building underwent significant regulatory scrutiny, including several serious violations that suggest unauthorized modifications and occupancy issues. These included findings of an illegal conversion, unauthorized construction work, and occupancy beyond the legally approved configuration. Specifically, the Department of Buildings cited the property for work without permits, including the unauthorized removal of a retaining wall, and for maintaining the building in a code-compliant manner with improper locking devices installed on bedroom doors. While many of these earlier violations were resolved or dismissed, the building's recent history suggests ongoing challenges with pest control and maintenance compliance, as evidenced by the persistent rodent activity and recent health code violations.
