2133 Blackrock Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 2133 Blackrock Avenue in Unionport, owned by Rubal Salam and constructed in 1930, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are **four open bedbug violation cases** (with the most recent in April 2024 and previous ones in 2023, 2022, and 2021), indicating ongoing compliance issues with the city's bedbug reporting requirements. The building has also faced **lead paint hazard compliance challenges**, particularly affecting Apartment 3, where violations from July 2023 related to lead-based paint documentation and door maintenance were recorded.

Additionally, similar violations regarding lead paint notification and record-keeping requirements were noted for Unit 1FL in May 2023. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with **three instances of bait application in 2016** following initial rat activity findings, though an inspection in March 2022 showed compliance with no active rodent issues. A notable structural issue was addressed in August 2023 with the repair of defective self-closing doors in Apartment 3.

The building's records show consistent attention to maintenance matters, with the only open violation as of April 2024 being the bedbug reporting issue. A plumbing-related permit was issued in August 2018, though the specific nature of the work is not detailed in the available records. The persistent nature of the bedbug reporting violations, spanning multiple years, stands out as the most significant ongoing compliance issue for this property.
