1527 East 172nd Street, Bronx, NY 10472

The 3-unit, 2-story residential building at 1527 East 172nd Street in Parkchester, owned by Rosary Mata, has been standing since 1920 and has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance events over the past years. Most notably, there are currently two open Housing Maintenance Code violations (from March 2023 and April 2024) related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations.

The building experienced a heat and hot water emergency in February 2019, though this was resolved within four days according to both 311 and Housing Maintenance records. Prior to the most recent issues, the building had several notable violations between 2018-2022, including a pair of self-closing door violations from September 2022 affecting both the second-floor apartment and the public hall entrance. In 2018, the building was cited for multiple administrative code violations regarding the posting of required safety notices for smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and other tenant information, though these were all certified as corrected by August 2018.

The property has maintained generally good rodent control compliance, with multiple passed inspections from 2010 through 2018, though there was one failed inspection in 2013. While there was one bedbug infestation reported for the 2019-2020 period, the filing indicated zero units were affected. The building's most pressing current issue appears to be the open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, which have persisted through multiple inspection cycles from 2022 through 2024.
