1430 White Plains Road, Bronx, NY 10462

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 1430 White Plains Road in Parkchester, owned by Franklin Gallegos, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. The property has open violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports for the years 2021 through 2024, as required by Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regulations.

These violations represent a concerning lapse in mandatory pest management reporting. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with pests, illustrated by multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints - with reports in September 2019 and October 2021 - though these specific complaints were resolved through HPD inspections. More recently, there was an emergency heating/hot water issue in December 2021, which was promptly addressed and closed.

The building's inspection record includes one rodent inspection in February 2012, which passed, and a Department of Buildings complaint regarding possible illegal conversion in January 2021, which was investigated in March 2021 but resulted in no violations being warranted at the time of inspection. It's worth noting that while there have been multiple pest-related complaints in the past, the most recent three years show no such complaints, suggesting some improvement in this area. The building's age (constructed in 1930) and relatively small size (with only three units) are typical for the Parkchester neighborhood, though the recurring nature of some violations and open bedbug report violations warrant attention.
