1054 Elder Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The three-family residential building at 1054 Elder Avenue in Soundview has experienced recurring pest management challenges over the past several years. The property, constructed in 1960 and currently owned by Arsen Yakubov, has documented multiple pest-related issues, particularly during late 2021 when an unsanitary condition complaint regarding pests was made and subsequently addressed through Housing Maintenance Code violations.

These violations specifically pertained to rodent and cockroach infestations in the second-floor apartment, which were certified as corrected in February 2022. More recently, the building has undergone regular pest control interventions, particularly regarding rat activity, with the most recent compliance inspection passing in May 2025.

Notable rodent activity was recorded in both the fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025, suggesting ongoing challenges with vermin control despite the most recent pass. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations from 2020 through the present, with all bedbug reports showing zero infested or eradicated units. While the building's rodent management efforts have shown some improvement, as evidenced by the most recent compliance pass, the frequency of rat activity reports between 2022 and 2025 indicates that pest management remains a significant operational focus for the property.
