1951 Edison Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461

Located in Pelham Bay, 1951 Edison Avenue is a three-story, four-unit residential building constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Randy Pajooh. The property has experienced several notable events in recent years, most concerning being two separate illegal conversion complaints in 2021 and 2024, though both investigations were unable to proceed due to inspectors being denied access.

The building's infrastructure has required attention, with a plumbing/water supply issue reported in September 2023 that was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development but resulted in no violations being found. Prior to this, a bedbug reporting violation was issued in March 2023 related to the failure to file an annual report, though subsequent filings demonstrate consistent compliance with zero reported infestations from 2019 through 2025. Despite the concerning nature of the illegal conversion complaints and the plumbing issue, the building has maintained generally good overall conditions in recent years.

A rodent inspection conducted in April 2019 passed without issues, and no additional violations or complaints have been recorded since the plumbing incident was resolved in September 2023. The periodic bedbug filings show a consistent pattern of zero infestations, with the most recent report from May 2025 confirming no units had experienced any pest issues during the previous year. The building's maintenance history suggests active management, particularly in addressing violations when they occur, though the repeated inability of inspectors to access the property during illegal conversion investigations is notable.
