2747 Barnes Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The two-family building at 2747 Barnes Avenue in Allerton, owned by Runa Chowdhury and constructed in 1925, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, in early 2024, there were multiple complaints about mold (classified as emergency) and wall conditions that required attention, along with a concerning complaint about heat and hot water in January 2024. This followed a similar pattern in December 2022, when multiple heat/hot water complaints were reported.

The building has faced recurring challenges with bedbugs, with the most recent report from June 2025 indicating one re-infested unit out of three total, though previous reports showed successful eradication in 2024 and 2023. Security has also been a documented concern, with a Class B violation in April 2023 regarding lock replacements at the first-story vestibule. The property has maintained generally good rodent control, passing inspections in 2024, 2022, and 2017, though there was one instance of reported rat activity in 2017.

The building has undergone two significant bedbug treatment cycles between 2023-2025, suggesting ongoing pest management challenges. Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 through 2024 indicate issues that required attention, including the need to file annual bedbug reports, though all cited violations eventually closed. The property has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed between 2022-2024, though many were resolved shortly after reporting.
