1256 Boynton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 1256 Boynton Avenue in Parkchester, owned by Tara Sookdoo, has been subject to recurring regulatory scrutiny since 2021, with particular focus on bedbug reporting compliance.

The building, constructed in 1924 and classified as a New Law Tenement, has been cited four consecutive times between 2021 and 2024 for not filing the required annual bedbug reports as per Housing Maintenance Code § HMC requirements, though these violations appear to be administrative in nature rather than indicating an active infestation. The property's rodent management record shows a concerning pattern, with the most recent inspection in May 2025 showing rat activity followed by a passing compliance inspection later that month.

While the building has achieved "Passed" results in most initial rodent inspections from 2018 through 2024, significant problems emerged in March 2024 when it received a failure notice for "Other Reasons." A notable improvement was observed, with a "Passed" result in May 2025 following the rat activity report in early May 2025, suggesting recent remediation efforts. The building's rodent control history shows consistent inspections approximately every year, with the majority resulting in compliance, though the presence of rat activity in 2025 indicates ongoing challenges in maintaining pest control standards.
