2431 Lyvere Street, Bronx, NY 10461

2431 Lyvere Street, a 4-unit, 2-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1926 in Westchester Square, is currently owned by Ada Lopez. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably in early 2024, when there were complaints about heat and hot water issues, and mouse sightings that resulted in health department violations.

The building has persistent bedbug reporting violations from 2021-2024 under Housing Maintenance Code violations, with the most recent violation remaining open as of April 2024. While there were multiple elevator service complaints recorded through 2023, these were successfully addressed. The property underwent a period of extensive violations and corrections in late 2018 through 2019, particularly in December 2018 when multiple violations were documented for apartment 1R, including problems with bathroom tiles, electrical outlets, kitchen faucets, wood floors, and a leaking bathtub.

The Department of Buildings recorded multiple environmental violations in 2019 related to work without permits, particularly concerning unauthorized construction in the basement that was partially resolved by 2020, though one violation regarding unauthorized conversion remains active with a penalty of $2,500. Recent inspections in 2024 show some improvement in rodent control, with the most recent inspection passing, though an initial inspection in February 2024 resulted in a failure for unspecified reasons. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of ongoing compliance issues and completed repairs, with particular attention needed on bedbug reporting compliance and historical unauthorized modifications to the building structure.
