1553 Glebe Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

Located in Westchester Square, 1553 Glebe Avenue is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building owned by Katrina Pllumbi and constructed in 2016. The building has experienced recurring administrative issues regarding bedbug reporting compliance, with the most recent Housing Maintenance Code violations recorded in March 2023 and March 2022, both relating to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD regulations.

Despite these violations, the building's official bedbug reporting history from 2019 through 2024 shows no recorded instances of infestation, eradication, or re-infestation in any dwelling units, indicating successful pest management despite the reporting compliance issues. Of particular historical note is a significant violation from January 2018, when the building was occupied without a valid Certificate of Occupancy, resulting in a $1,000 penalty, which has since been resolved.

This incident underscores the importance of proper regulatory compliance in the building's early occupancy period. While the building has maintained a record of no bedbug infestations over the past five reporting periods, the pattern of bedbug reporting violations suggests some ongoing challenges with timely administrative compliance, though these appear to be strictly procedural in nature rather than indicative of any current pest management issues.
