1335 Harrod Avenue, Bronx, NY 10472

This 2-story, 3-unit residential building at 1335 Harrod Avenue in Parkchester, owned by Mignon Beckford-white and built in 1920, has undergone several significant inspections and reporting requirements over the past several years. Most notably, there have been consistent Housing Maintenance Code violations each year from 2021 through 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations; however, recent reports indicate no instances of bedbug infestation during the reporting periods, with 0 infested, eradicated, or re-infested units recorded in the filings for 2022-2024.

On the pest control front, the building has demonstrated a good track record with six consecutive successful rodent inspections from 2010 to 2018, receiving passing grades in each instance. While the annual bedbug report violations represent a pattern of regulatory non-compliance, it is worth noting that the absence of actual infestations during the reporting periods suggests proactive management of the situation once violations were identified.

The building's consistent passing of rodent inspections over nearly a decade indicates effective pest management in that regard. The most recent bedbug report filed in April 2024 covers the period from November 2022 to October 2023, showing continued compliance with the reporting requirement, though it follows several years of violations that began in 2021.
