1908 Hunt Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

The two-story, four-unit New Law Tenement building at 1908 Hunt Avenue in Van Nest, owned by Ali Fadel and constructed in 1926, has an unsettling pattern of regulatory noncompliance over the past several years. Most notably, there is an ongoing issue with annual bedbug reporting violations, with four consecutive open violations documented between 2021 and 2024, all citing noncompliance with the Housing Maintenance Code requirements to file the mandatory annual bedbug reports.

These repeated violations, occurring annually for four years, suggest persistent challenges with maintaining compliance with basic health and safety requirements. While the building has shown improvement in other areas, particular attention should be given to its rodent inspection history.

The most recent rodent inspection from January 2023 resulted in a passed outcome, following a history of mixed results: a failed inspection in October 2012 for unspecified reasons, and a compliance inspection in November 2012 that passed. The building's overall condition appears to reflect ongoing maintenance challenges, with the most pressing current concerns centered around the unresolved bedbug reporting requirements. It's worth noting that the bedbug violation notifications carry a class A designation, indicating they are considered hazardous to life or health, though they may not represent an active infestation in the building.
