2841 East 196th Street, Bronx, NY 10461

The 4-unit, 2-story building at 2841 East 196th Street in Pelham Bay, owned by Constantino Flores, has been a stable residential property since its construction in 1925. The building has experienced recurring administrative violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024, with four separate instances where the property was cited for not filing its annual bedbug report as required under Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) § HMC.

However, these violations appear to have been addressed, as the most recent bedbug reports from July 2024 show no confirmed infestations, eradicated units, or re-infested units for the reporting periods covering 2022-2023. The property is currently dealing with two ongoing Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints from August 2023 regarding bees/wasps, filed under the "Harboring Bees/Wasps - Not a beekeeper" category, though these complaints have not yet been resolved according to the available data.

The building has demonstrated compliance with rodent control regulations, having passed an initial inspection on April 16, 2019. It's worth noting that the bedbug reporting violations, while frequent, occurred during the transition to regular compliance, and the property has maintained a zero infestation record in subsequent reports. The most recent bedbug filing in July 2024 covered the period from November 2022 to October 2023, indicating improved reporting practices, though the persistent bee/wasp issue from 2023 remains unresolved at this time.
