1054 Manor Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 1054 Manor Avenue in Soundview, owned by Felix Cabrera and constructed in 1930, has experienced numerous maintenance and pest control challenges over the past several years. Most concerning is the building's ongoing rodent issue, with multiple inspections since 2022 showing "Rat Activity," though recent inspections in 2025 have shown improvements with "Passed" results. The property has also faced significant pest control challenges, particularly with cockroaches, as evidenced by open violations from October 2024 and multiple housing maintenance code complaints between 2021 and 2024.

The building suffered a period of heat and hot water service complaints in late 2022, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. While the building has had several bedbug-related violations, most recent reports indicate no active infestations during the 2021-2022 reporting period. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of sanitary issues being reported and addressed, with varying levels of compliance.

Some complaints, particularly regarding pests, have resulted in violations, such as the October 2024 citation for cockroach infestation in the second-story apartment. The property has undergone multiple inspections and reports related to the Housing Maintenance Code, with violations for not submitting required bedbug reports in 2022-2024. The owner has generally addressed most issues once violations were issued, though there have been recurring problems that suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. Recent inspections in early 2025 indicate some improvement in pest management, with initial rodent activity followed by passed inspections, though this continues to be an area requiring attention.
