1269 Noble Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The 2-story, 4-unit New Law Tenement building at 1269 Noble Avenue in Parkchester, owned by Jorge Merchan and constructed in 1927, has had a concerning pattern of housing maintenance code violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements over the past several years. Most recently, in April 2024, and in each of the preceding three years (2021-2023), the building received Class A violations for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD rules.

These open violations suggest ongoing non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, though there is no indication of bedbug infestations based solely on these violations. The building's rodent inspection history shows generally good performance in recent years, with passed inspections in 2018, 2017, 2016, and 2010.

However, a rat activity report was recorded in January 2013, representing the only noted rodent issue in the past 15 years. This inspection history indicates that while the building has maintained relatively good conditions regarding rodent presence, the persistent bedbug reporting violations over the last four consecutive years represent the building's most significant and ongoing compliance issue, though again, these violations do not necessarily indicate active infestations or bedbug-related problems.
