1355 Harrod Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 1355 Harrod Avenue in Parkchester, owned by Mohammed Ahmed, has been under consistent oversight since its conversion to Class A status. Built in 1920, this property has encountered several noteworthy events over its recent history.

Most significantly, there were three Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though all were closed. The building underwent facade work in 2018 that resulted in two Environmental Control Board violations for sidewalk obstruction and unpermitted work, which were resolved without penalties. More positively, the property has maintained a clean record regarding pest infestations, with the most recent bedbug report filing (May 2025) showing no infested, eradicated, or re-infested units.

Rodent issues have been effectively managed, with regular inspections between 2010 and 2020 showing mostly passing results, though there was one failed inspection in June 2010 for "Other Reasons." A rat sighting was reported in January 2020, but this was investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which found no violations. The building appears to have consistently addressed regulatory requirements, as evidenced by the regular filing of bedbug reports since 2021 showing zero infestations, though the property had received violations for late filings in 2021-2024. The most recent violation notice related to bedbug reporting requirements was issued in April 2024, indicating the property continues to navigate regulatory requirements while maintaining a generally good standing in terms of pest management and building maintenance.
