2770 Matthews Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The five-story, seven-unit residential building at 2770 Matthews Avenue in Allerton, owned by Mat 2770 Llc, has experienced several significant events since 2021, with the most recent issues occurring in 2024. The building has maintained an active construction and renovation schedule, evidenced by multiple permits issued between 2021 to 2024, including plumbing and alteration work. In 2024, there was an electrical safety concern involving exposed wires that resulted in an Environmental Control Board violation, though this was resolved with no penalties imposed.

The building has a consistent record of bedbug reporting compliance, with the most recent 2024 report showing no infested units, and it has successfully passed rodent inspections in 2022 and 2024, despite experiencing rat activity between 2013-2015. Between 2022-2023, the building underwent significant construction work that triggered multiple Department of Buildings violations related to construction safety, including issues with scaffolding, unsupported platforms, and electrical hazards, resulting in several fines totaling $13,375. There were also concerns about daily scaffold inspections being conducted by improperly certified personnel.

While most of these violations were resolved and work continued, they indicated substantial construction activity occurred during this period. The property has shown recent attention to regulatory compliance, with timely bedbug reporting and resolutions to various Building Department complaints, though some safety concerns, such as the 2024 electrical wiring issue, indicate ongoing maintenance needs. The building's records demonstrate a pattern of active management in addressing both routine maintenance and construction-related compliance, with most violations being promptly addressed and resolved.
