1241 Harrod Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

This two-story, three-unit residential building at 1241 Harrod Avenue in Parkchester, owned by Sillah Corporation, has a documented history of maintenance issues, particularly during 2024 and early 2025. Recent inspections in February 2025 revealed multiple violations, including problems with mold, ceiling conditions, and flooring issues, though some complaints were found to be non-violating, such as heat and hot water problems.

In May 2024, the building received several citations, including an open Class C violation related to roof leaks affecting a second-floor apartment (2R), along with various other violations concerning window repairs, pest control, and the need for proper safety notices. The property currently has active Environmental Control Board violations from May 2024 regarding an over-height front yard fence (7 feet 6 inches) in violation of residential zoning regulations, resulting in a $500 penalty. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with pest control and unit conditions, with multiple violations recorded between 2024 and 2025, particularly in Apartment 2R.

Notable maintenance concerns from recent years include unsanitary conditions, mold, and various infrastructure issues, though there have been no reports of bedbug infestations since 2022 and rodent inspections from 2010, 2014, 2017, and 2018 all passed. While some historical violations have been addressed, as evidenced by their "closed" status, many recent violations remain open or were only recently issued, indicating ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's age (built in 1930) and accumulated issues suggest a need for continuing attention to maintenance and compliance matters, particularly regarding the open violations related to safety notices and building infrastructure.
