2262 Waterbury Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

2262 Waterbury Avenue is a 2-story, 4-unit residential building constructed in 1925 in the Unionport neighborhood, currently owned by Mohammed Azam. The property has experienced several significant issues in recent years that warrant attention.

Most notably, there are multiple open violations from September 2021 related to an unauthorized cellar apartment (North 1) that allegedly contains illegal residential features, including a kitchen with cooking facilities and bathroom facilities (sink, washbasin, water closet, and bathtub), for which the owner has been cited under multiple sections of the New York City Administrative Code and Housing Maintenance Code. The building has a history of bedbug-related compliance issues, with the most recent violation dated April 2024, though an annual bedbug report submission was received in June 2024 indicating no current infestations.

The property has documented bedbug infestations in all four units during the 2024-2025 reporting period, with previous infestations noted in 2020-2021 showing a pattern of recurring pest issues. An emergency water leak complaint was recorded in September 2021 and subsequently closed, though this represents a potential past maintenance concern. While there have been multiple bedbug-related violations since 2021, all previous violations from earlier years appear to have been resolved, indicating some level of attention to compliance matters, though the recurring nature of the infestations suggests ongoing challenges in this area.
