3540 Ely Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466

The 2-story, 3-unit residential building at 3540 Ely Avenue in Edenwald, owned by Esther Duodu, has been persistently cited for bedbug reporting violations over the past four years, from 2021 through 2024.

All four violations, classified as "Class A" Housing Maintenance Code violations, specifically relate to the failure to file the required annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD regulations. These open violations, which represent a continuing non-compliance with city health and safety requirements, indicate a longstanding issue with proper pest management documentation in the building.

The most recent violation was issued in April 2024, and notably, all the violations lack any certified correction dates, suggesting that the required documentation has not been submitted for multiple consecutive years despite the repeated violations. While the building is relatively new, having been constructed in 2007, the consistent pattern of bedbug reporting violations over multiple years raises concerns about the building's compliance with basic housing maintenance requirements.
