1142 Elder Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement at 1142 Elder Avenue in Soundview, currently owned by Mildred Best, has maintained a generally good record of compliance with housing regulations since its construction in 1928. The building's recent history shows consistent attention to pest management, with comprehensive bedbug reporting showing zero incidents of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation across the past four reporting periods from 2019 through 2024.

Rodent control has also been diligently monitored, with the most recent inspection in April 2025 passing successfully, continuing a pattern of compliance with nine consecutive passing rodent inspections since 2017. The property has experienced minimal compliance issues, with notable events limited to two Housing Maintenance Code violations related to bedbug reporting requirements in 2021 and 2023, though these violations appear to have been resolved as indicated by the building's current status.

A single rat sighting report in March 2022 was investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which found no violations at the time of inspection and confirmed the property passed. While the building has experienced some administrative violations in the past, the owners have consistently addressed these issues, as evidenced by the closure of the violations and the property's current status of zero active violations. The building's maintenance record suggests a proactive approach to pest management and compliance with city regulations, with recent inspections consistently showing no active pest problems or code violations.
