2751 Barnes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The three-story, 3-unit residential building at 2751 Barnes Avenue in Allerton, managed by 2751 Barnes Ave LLC, has a notable history of maintenance and safety concerns. Most recently, in 2025, there was a water leak issue that HPD attempted to inspect but could not complete.

The building has faced persistent rodent issues, with multiple rat sighting complaints in 2023 and 2024, including an open violation from August 2024 regarding mouse infestation in Apartment 2. August 2024 presented several emergency maintenance issues, including problems with doors/windows, plumbing fixtures, and safety equipment, specifically involving smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Earlier records indicate ongoing challenges with basic services and maintenance access, including a heat/hot water complaint in 2022 and multiple paint/plaster-related complaints in 2020, none of which could be properly inspected due to access issues.

The building's violation history reveals several Areas of Concern, with open violations as of 2024 related to bathroom basin repairs, smoke detector issues, and carbon monoxide detector problems in Apartment 2, as well as a self-closing door issue at the building entrance noted as a Class C violation. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections (most recently in March 2024), earlier inspections showed mixed results, including failed inspections in August 2023. Importantly, the building has maintained consistent bedbug reporting compliance since 2021, with no infested units reported in the last three reporting periods (2022-2025), suggesting effective pest management in this area despite the ongoing rodent challenges.
