1838 Hone Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461

The two-family home at 1838 Hone Avenue in Morris Park, currently owned by Pingping Liu, has been facing persistent housing maintenance challenges since 2021. The property, built in 1930 and currently classified as HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A with 2 stories and 3 units, has multiple unresolved violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024, indicating ongoing compliance issues with the Housing Maintenance Code.

Additionally, in 2021, the building received notable Class C violations concerning lead-based paint hazard notifications and record-keeping requirements, which remain open according to the latest available data. A rodent inspection conducted in December 2022 yielded a passing result, and there is one historical complaint from July 2018 regarding illegal work or occupancy use, though the inspector was unable to gain access for verification during the final attempt. The building has some positive maintenance history, including a successfully issued permit on October 31, 2022, for unspecified exterior work.

The recurring nature of the bedbug reporting violations over multiple years, combined with the lead-related compliance issues, suggests ongoing challenges with maintaining proper compliance with housing regulations. The most recent building inspection data available through October 2023 shows these violations remain open as of July 2025. The property, classified as a two-family residence, has transitioned from its original construction purpose, as indicated by its current building classification.
