1246 Havemeyer Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

The three-unit, three-story residential building at 1246 Havemeyer Avenue in Unionport, owned by Naseir Bacchus and constructed in 1915, has experienced several notable events throughout its history. Most significantly, the building faced an illegal conversion complaint in July 2018, which led to a stop work order that was only fully rescinded in September 2021.

This period of regulatory scrutiny was accompanied by two immediately hazardous (Class 1) violations issued in November 2018, though these were subsequently dismissed by May-June 2019. A separate violation for failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous condition, issued in November 2018, was dismissed in May 2019.

Despite these regulatory issues, the building has demonstrated a clean record in terms of pest infestations, with eight consecutive bedbug reports between 2019 and 2024 showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units. These reports, filed quarterly, indicate consistent monitoring and successful maintenance of pest-free conditions over the past five years. While the building's documented history shows a period of regulatory challenges related to its conversion status, the subsequent years have shown compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and maintained a pest-free environment, with no recent building code violations on record as of 2024.
