130 Westchester Square, Bronx, NY 10461

The property at 130 Westchester Square is a two-story, two-family house built in 1925, currently owned by Mansour Mehdizadeh. The building has experienced several significant regulatory issues over the past few years, with the most pressing being multiple Department of Buildings (DOB) violations related to failure to comply with commissioner's orders and certificate of occupancy requirements. Currently, there are active ECB violations from 2023 and 2024 with penalties of $2,500 each, specifically for failure to comply with earlier orders regarding certificate corrections.

The building has a concerning history of electrical safety issues, with multiple complaints between 2020 and 2021 regarding defective/exposed wiring, resulting in violations. Food safety has also been a persistent concern, with the Department of Health issuing multiple violations between 2020 and 2025 for various infractions including food contamination, bare hand food contact, and toilet facility issues, though most have been resolved or administratively closed. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of permitted work, including multiple electrical and plumbing permits issued between 2018-2020, suggesting ongoing building system maintenance or upgrades. Three tenant safety inspections were conducted between 2023-2024, resulting in Oath Violation Notices being served.

There was also a gas utility referral in 2019, though access for inspection was not granted according to records. A rodent inspection conducted in 2019 resulted in a passing grade. The property has a history of both active and resolved DOB violations from 2019-2020, particularly regarding work done without proper permits and failure to certify corrections of hazardous violations. While some issues have been addressed through proper channels, the pattern of violations and penalties suggests ongoing compliance challenges related to both building safety and health regulations.
