1161 Ward Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472
The two-story, three-unit building at 1161 Ward Avenue in Soundview, owned by Omnarine Ramlall, has a documented history of pest control compliance issues, particularly regarding bedbug reporting. Between 2021 and 2024, the property received multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD rules. The most recent of these violations remains open as of April 2024.
The building experienced a bedbug infestation in 2022, with documentation showing one unit was treated but subsequently re-infested, though records indicate the infestation was eventually resolved. The property has undergone significant renovations and faced safety compliance challenges, particularly in 2018 when numerous violations were recorded in Apartment 2. These included issues with window guards (with violations noting the need to install or repair six guards), various door security concerns (including locks on fire escape windows and scuttle ladder doors), and maintenance issues such as broken floor tiles in the bathroom and defective plastered surfaces.
However, all these 2018 violations were certified as corrected within a few months. Since 2018, the building has shown consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all inspections conducted between 2016 and 2025. An April 2023 complaint regarding illegal conversion was investigated and found to have no warranted violations.
