2220 Holland Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 2220 Holland Avenue in Allerton, owned by Ronald Verderose, has a significant history of maintenance issues dating back to 2018. Most notably, there is an ongoing pattern of violations related to bedbug reporting compliance from 2021 through 2024, with all four violations remaining open as of the latest data.

The building has experienced recurring sanitation issues, including a rat sighting in July 2024 that resulted in violations noted by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, though a subsequent rodent compliance inspection in September 2024 passed. There is a documented history of mold problems, with an emergency complaint in 2018 and corresponding Housing Maintenance Code violations requiring repair of mold in the bathroom ceiling and north wall of the first-floor apartment. The building has several outstanding violations from a November 2018 inspection specifically affecting the first-floor apartment, including safety concerns such as missing or defective window guards, a malfunctioning smoke detector, a faulty carbon monoxide detector, and issues with door self-closing mechanisms.

Additionally, there was a violation noted for defective stucco on the north side of the building. While periodic rodent inspections between 2010 and 2019 consistently passed, the most recent inspections in 2023-2024 show more variable results, with a failed inspection in July 2024, though this was subsequently followed by a passed inspection in September 2024. The building's health and safety compliance record suggests ongoing challenges with maintenance and pest control that have persisted over multiple years, with most recent violations focusing on bedbug reporting requirements and rodent control.
