2338 Ellis Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

2338 Ellis Avenue is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Unionport, constructed in 2005 and currently owned by Pablo Polanco. The building's recent inspection history reveals several concerning safety issues, particularly in 2023, when Unit 2 was found to have inoperable smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, both of which were subsequently certified as repaired on November 13, 2023.

The building has consistently faced requirements to file annual bedbug reports, with the most recent inspection in April 2024 resulting in another violation for not submitting the required documentation. However, the subsequent bedbug filing for the period of November 2022 to October 2023 reported zero infested units, matching the pattern of previous filings (2020-2021) that also reported no infestations, suggesting effective pest management despite the reporting compliance issues. The building's maintenance record shows relatively few violations, with the most significant being the delayed filing of bedbug reports, which fall under Class A violations indicating potential public safety concerns.

Apart from the aforementioned safety violations in 2023 and the bedbug reporting issues, there are no other recorded health or safety violations in recent years. A rodent inspection conducted in November 2010 resulted in a passing grade, providing some historical assurance of pest management. The property has maintained compliance with correcting its cited violations, as evidenced by the certification of repairs and the pattern of submitting bedbug reports, though the timing of these submissions has often triggered violations.
