1911 Barnes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

The three-unit, two-story brick building at 1911 Barnes Avenue in Van Nest, owned by Rodney Sani, has experienced several maintenance challenges over the past two years. Most notably, in summer 2023, there were multiple reports of unsanitary conditions, including observations of mold, pests, and issues with ceiling paint/plaster, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) did not result in violations.

More recently, in late 2023, there were complaints about garbage/recycling storage, which also did not lead to any violations. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections, with the most recent (December 2023) resulting in a pass, following an earlier rat activity finding in January 2023, though a rat sighting complaint in November 2023 was also investigated and resulted in no violations. The building's historical records show consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2020 through 2024, with all reports indicating no infested units.

A single violation related to the annual bedbug report filing was recorded in April 2021, though this appears to have been resolved given the subsequent compliance history. A building permit was issued in October 2019 for an unspecified job under sequence number 240262210. While recent inspections and complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly related to sanitation and pest control, the building has generally maintained compliance with health department requirements and housing maintenance codes.
