2547 Radcliff Avenue, Bronx, NY 10469

2547 Radcliff Avenue is a three-story, four-unit residential building located in Allerton, built in 1927 and currently owned by Jose Centeno. The property has experienced recurring issues with heating and hot water systems, particularly evident in emergency complaints in both November and December 2019, as well as similar problems reported in November 2020. A significant cluster of violations emerged during late 2019, including confirmed pest issues with mice infestations in multiple apartments (notably in "BACKOF" and "BACKHO" units), and safety concerns with the building's heating system access and hot water supply.

These violations were categorized as Class C, indicating more severe concerns requiring prompt attention. More recently, the building has maintained a consistent record of failing to file required annual bedbug reports between 2021 and 2024, which has resulted in four open Class A violations as of April 2024. The building's maintenance history shows some improvement in recent years, with a passed rodent inspection in February 2023 and a generally clean record in 2020 regarding the illegal conversion complaint (which was investigated and found to have no warranted violations).

However, the persistent issue of unfiled bedbug reports from 2021 through 2024 suggests ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance. While the property has shown some ability to address specific complaints when investigated, the pattern of heating system issues and pest control violations between 2019-2020 indicates these problems have historically affected resident comfort and safety during that period. The most recent housing maintenance code violations suggest continuing challenges with timely reporting of pest control measures, though these do not necessarily indicate current infestations as the violations are administrative in nature.
