1249 Bronx River Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472
This two-story, four-unit tenement built in 1925 at 1249 Bronx River Avenue in East Morrisania, currently owned by Gloria Velez, has experienced recurring rodent issues in recent years. Most notably, in late 2024, there were documented rat activities during both initial and compliance inspections in October and November.
The building has consistently failed to meet Housing Maintenance Code requirements for annual bedbug reporting between 2022 and 2024, with open violations still pending resolution. A significant safety concern was identified in September 2021, when a violation was recorded regarding an electric outlet placement near a water source in the kitchen of apartment 2R, though this was not classified as an emergency.
During 2019, there was another issue in apartment 2R regarding defective plastered surfaces and improper paint application in the bathroom ceiling, which was subsequently addressed and closed. While the building has undergone various inspections for rodent control since 2013, showing periods of compliance, the most recent findings in 2024 indicate ongoing pest management challenges that require attention.
