2424 Esplanade, Bronx, NY 10469

This two-story, three-unit residential building located at 2424 Esplanade in Pelham Gardens, owned by Robert Tarallo, has experienced several recurring issues over the past five years, primarily related to pest control compliance and construction activities. Most notably, the building has accumulated four open Housing Maintenance Code violations (2021-2024) regarding failure to file required annual bedbug reports, which appears to be an ongoing administrative oversight.

The property has undergone multiple permit applications and issuances between 2019-2025 for various construction work, including electrical and plumbing projects, some of which generated compliance issues. Specifically, in 2019, an ECB violation was issued against Impact Builders Corp for unauthorized work, carrying a $6,250 penalty that remains active. The building's inspection history shows mixed results, with multiple rodent inspections in 2023 showing non-compliance for "Other Reasons." There have been several Department of Buildings complaints between 2019-2022, though most were closed without violations being substantiated, including complaints about work contrary to a stop work order in 2020 that was unsubstantiated based on department records.

In 2019, a stop work order was issued but subsequently rescinded in October 2019. The property has shown a pattern of requiring multiple permits for various types of work between 2019-2025, with the most recent permit filing in February 2025 still listed as in process. The first recorded bedbug report violation in 2021 marks the beginning of the recurring compliance issue, which has persisted through 2024 without apparent resolution.
